A quick question
#6
In the IDE, if you open up the help to the CHR$ page (which you mentioned you have), down at the very bottom should be something like the following:

Code: (Select All)
See also:
ÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍ
 ASC, ASC (statement)
 INKEY$
 ASCII character codes


(Though with properly rendered ASCII characters instead of what the forum is showing for us. Tongue )

Click on the ASCII character code link and it should download the wiki page and parse it, with the top of it looking like:

Code: (Select All)
ASCII and Extended Codes
ÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍ
                                                                            MS-DOS code page 437:

                                                                    ÉÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍ»
                                                                    º The original page has a table here,  º
                                                                    º please click inside this box to load º
                                                                    º the page into your standard browser. º
                                                                    ÈÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍͼ

Þ  * DEL was used to erase paper tape data by punching out all of the 7 holes.
Þ  ** Control characters 8 to 13 and 28 to 31 can move text formatting when printed and do not display
Þ  *** NBSP is a Non-breaking Space used to indent text. Some browsers may handle this character differently

                                                                More information about ASCII  Control Characters


If it doesn't show something similar, you should be able to click on HELP, in the top right corner, and then select UPDATE CURRENT PAGE.  At that point, it'll download a fresh copy of the page from the wiki and parse it.  It may just be that the page you currently have on your drive is blank, or corrupted, or some such.  

Heck, I'd suggest before going to bed, supper, or to snuggle with the wife, to just click the UPDATE ALL PAGES option and let it do its thing.  It's always nice to keep up to date with our latest and greatest wiki updates!  Wink
