suggestion: change to _MEMFREE

DIM AS INTEGER a, b, c, etc.

Where instead of the required syntax following:

_MEMFREE m
_MEMFREE m2
_MEMFREE m3

One could do:

_MEMFREE m, m2, m3

Would there be any interest in such a change, or would that be too difficult of an implementation?

But then I want...

_CLEAR a, b, c, e

Instead of...

a = 0
b = 0
c = 0
e = 0

Complicated by CLEAR being backwards compatible with comma deliminators for memory, which is ignored in QB64; (e.g. CLEAR , , 2000). So _CLEAR Tongue

"It's always something..."

In other news..

+ 1 for

"DO: LOOP: DO: LOOP
sha_na_na_na_na_na_na_na_na_na:"

PS Don't be surprised if I -2 you later... when I can't that jingle out of my head!
