Some problem codes
Before we go too far we need to mention some codes that may
cause you problems. Like most of the subjects in this chapter, we
have to be a little vague because of the differences in computers.
Nearly all BASICS change some of the ASCII codes between
your BASIC program and your printer. Some turn CHR$(lO) (a
line feed) into a CHR$(13) ( a carriage return) before sending it on.
Some other problem codes are 0, and 9 through 13. Once again we
refer you to the appendix about your computer, where some more
specific information awaits.
That's it for the basics. You are ready to learn how to use the
many features of Delta.
