    They are known issues with PBP 2.60.

    The EEPROM commands were modified considerably to allow WORDs and LONGs.
    A couple errors crept in, and they are supposed to be fixed in the next patch.

    Keep an eye on this page ...

    Hi, Darrel

    I catch the thread in flight ...

    As you have somewhat modified the PbP files ( DT Goodies i.e. ...) there should be a little problem with patches ( ??? corrected wayyyyy before the patch comes, I suppose ....) and upgrades ...

    For us ... patch refuses to apply if files have been modified, so we get a brand new full installation !!!

    How do you proceed not to loose or forget the mods each time a new upgrade comes ???

    ehhmmm,... make notes in a notepad maybe???

    Yeah this is an issue that bothers me too. I got 2.50 but never replaced my old installation just because I am lazy to find which files I modified...

    Alain, we need it don't we?

    If you think any way of mking updates less painful, do tell us.

    When Darrel wakes I am sure he would give an idea on this.

    After all I bet he has the most modified PBP directory!

    Maybe instead of using the word "patch" I should have said "band-aid solution"

    the patch I was referring to would be in my files, not the compiler files. ie a
    Code:
    write 0,0
    at the end of the program that never gets called.

    Oh hello, I'm awake now. 10PM

    Actually, for each patch or version level, I create another whole installation from the CD, then apply the patch.
    That way I can test for people's problems related to the specific version/patches.

    Talk about a mess ...
    I've got 9 PBP folders. Each one with different levels of modification.
    I'm constantly commenting out config lines in .inc files.

    I guess, for anyone that only wants one installation, the procedure is the same. (Patch a clean installation)
    Just delete the old installation when you're finished. NOT

    But some day ... you'll want something that was in that folder.
    Some day will be 3-days after you delete it.

    How do you proceed not to loose or forget the mods each time a new upgrade comes ???
    I don't. I figure it out again when something doesn't work.
    Cause it may be for a different reason now.
