Copying a directory with F5 and move/rename with F6 are buggy. F5 dir copy does not return to the FM but the copy is done. F6 shows a blank page in serial console and nothing happens on local screen. Left panel does not show a column for file size. Tested with resolutions 848 and 1280 I cannot see a usecase for the command line, as it does not return to the FM. What do you use it for?

Just checked on 640x480 everything works. These are hardware failures of the hardware or MMBASIC system due to overclocking, test on lower resolutions... I noticed that on high resolutions failures happen often! Wait a second, Coming soon... But you can also enable it in the program. For example, while in FM, you can type an option or a command and it will be executed upon exiting FM... That's how I save.)) |

Tested FM160, 164 and 169 with OPTION RESOLUTION 640 @252000. With none of these versions copying a directory works for me. A single file is copied without problems. F6 doesn't work for me either. In both cases it does not crash the pico! I'm playing around with this pico since half a year. Overclocking works rock solid and I never saw it doing things like that.. I would not exclude that it is really my specific setup..who knows All the best! With F6, ESC seems to help to get back into FM. I will check my sd card setup Edited 2025-07-16 03:15 by dddns |

Testing on PicoMite HDMI and VGA v.6.00.02 I just copied the PETROBOTS folder from disk to disk and moved it. There is a certain period of waiting for copying and it's done without any problems. The time depends on the number of files in the folder. A BASIC program should only do what it should do! |

Copy works! I overlooked, that the content is 3Mb and I was not patient enough. It took 1min to copy. F6 works as well. I found this with an USB keyboard, my terminal software uses F6 as clear terminal hotkey :)) I'm sorry for this bad report! |

hi javavi, Running FM169 on "classic" RP2040 VGA PS2 system with 6.00.03. I can use <ALT> and <BACKSPACE> to select the alternate function of the keys. Alternate functions F1 and F2 work (select drive) Alternate functions F3 and F4 do not work (view2 / edit) Alternate functions F5 and F6 (XMODEM RCV and TX) start RCV and TX Alternate function F7 does not work (find) I am pressing <ALT> or <BACKSPACE> and release these before I press the function key. Maybe I am not using FM correct, but since F1/F2/F5/F6 work, I assume there is something wrong with F3/F4/F7 implementation. UPDATE Running FM170 on "classic" RP2040 VGA PS2 system with 6.00.03 "find" now works. But alternate functions F3 and F4 do still not work. Bug: When using EDIT (F4) on a normal basic program, and closing the edit (either <ESC> or <F1>) I get an error message : [92] Color c(7),c(0):x=2*FW Error : 54241275355405417485 is invalid (valid is 0 to 268435455) Since the program I edit is only 10 lines, this must be the file manager causing the error. When I look in the editor, line 92 seems corrupt when shown in the error message. Regards, Volhout Edited 2025-07-16 22:33 by Volhout PicomiteVGA PETSCII ROBOTS |

hi Volhout, In the current version of FM v1.70, alternative functions F3 and F4 are provided but not implemented. sorry! I just checked the operation of FM on the PicoMiteVGA v6.00.01 firmware and the F4 file EDITOR function works, the editor opens with an editable text and successfully exits back to FM after closing. Yes, when opening very large files, it gives an error about lack of memory. Therefore, I think that this is not a FM problem, but the implementation of the EDIT FILE command in the new firmware, which appeared with the version of PicoMite in 6.00.02 and went to 6.00.03 To solve this problem, we need @matherp help!

This is my new test version of the FM. FM02078.zip New features include: - a revised Replace function (shift-F7) - a Find function for multiple matches (shift-F5) - Merge now uses the file in the opposite panel as the insert file - "hf.bas", a module for displaying all function and subprocedure-headers of a file using F11. - several small changes: For example, line numbers are optional in the text viewer (can be enabled in the user menu). Basically, I'm still waiting for Peter's announced text mode so that the pop-up handling can be improved. I'll be offline for a few days. @Vadim, if you'd rather I didn't post in this thread anymore, just let me know. Regards Michael causality ≠ correlation ≠ coincidence |
