I am not happy with hidden base, too. Sometimes I save the current base and restore it after using another one in a word, if I want to change it temorarily only. How can I do it, if base is hidden? I think the robustness is not enough reason to make it hidden. Otherwise in my opinion it is not rationale to see the decimal as a normal base. It is absolutely application depended. Attila |

Hello My 2 pence worth, I would also prefer BASE to be available - most of my stuff is permanent HEX.

Not hiding BASE is my preference also. Some of the robustness might be regained by filtering out bad values and defaulting to one of the known good values (hex seems to be a favoured option).

Alright, I can unhide BASE as a compilation option. Although in my opinion using anything else than BIN, HEX, DECIMAL as base is an amusing curiosity. And when I demoed it I always got some wise-xxx putting it to zero or one. BR Mike On 03/03/2014 10:31 AM, Peter Jacobs wrote: > Not hiding BASE is my preference also.

BASE is back. FLASH HI was wrong on PIC24 and ATmega. Fixed. HELP now words with CR NL or any combination thereof in the helpwords file. TMR 4,5,6 added for PIC18. BR Mike |
