Export to .BAS causes errors with new NextZXOS 2.08 integer syntax #41

Closed KevReillyUK closed 8 months ago

For now this is technically an edge case observation rather a bug, as it deals with pre-release code, but as KS2 gets closer it might become a problem once 2.08 becomes the official baseline.

Under NextZXOS / NextBASIC 2.08 the following code snippet...

10 %a = 1
20 PRINT (%a) + 1

...should yield the output "2", but instead gives "1" and N Statement Lost, 20:1 if exported from VS Code. The BASIC file ends up 6 bytes shorter than it should be, suggesting that maybe the binary representation of the constant is not getting translated properly.

There is a post with some more details in the NextBASIC Facebook group here.

Only took 6 months to reply, but fixed and live 😆 (thanks for reporting either way)
