Sorry bug you folks on the list but I had a hopefully easy
question, I was using a quite modified Circle3.0bpl9 source and patched
in most of the updates in bpl10, including the helpfiles, so far
everything compiles fine, but when I run the game I get a fairly
ambiguous error.
"error reading help file: not terminated with $?"
I've put all the new patches in for get_one_line and all the
db_boot stuff (load_help, etc), anyway it appears to be finding the
index, but choking when it trys to read the help file. I'm still using
my old helpfiles because I've added alot to them, but instead of them
ending with #~ I changed it to #'\n'$ - which is what I thought the new
format needed to end with.
Anyway, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, otherwise
I'll just go back to the old format.
-Thanks in advance,
Sean Mountcastle
