GCBASIC Help misprint

[Clint Koehn]

This is incorrect in the help file:

Example:

  #DEFINE LCD_IO 4
  #DEFINE LCD_SPEED OPTIMAL

  #DEFINE LCD_DB7 PORTB.5
  #DEFINE LCD_DB6 PORTB.4
  #DEFINE LCD_DB7 PORTB.3
  #DEFINE LCD_DB6 PORTB.2

  #DEFINE LCD_RW PORTA.3    'Must be defined for RW Mode
  #DEFINE LCD_RS PORTA,2
  #DEFINE LCD_ENABLE PORTA.1

It should be more like:

Example:

  #DEFINE LCD_IO 4
  #DEFINE LCD_SPEED OPTIMAL

  #DEFINE LCD_DB7 PORTB.5
  #DEFINE LCD_DB6 PORTB.4
  #DEFINE LCD_DB5 PORTB.3
  #DEFINE LCD_DB4 PORTB.2

  #DEFINE LCD_RW PORTA.3    'Must be defined for RW Mode
  #DEFINE LCD_RS PORTA,2
  #DEFINE LCD_ENABLE PORTA.1

Help me spot the different.... there is a typo! Which page in the Help ?

[Clint Koehn]

LCD_DB6 and LCD_DB7 are duplicated, and there is no LCD_DB4 or LCD_DB5.

  #DEFINE **LCD_DB7** PORTB.5
  #DEFINE LCD_DB6 PORTB.4
  #DEFINE **LCD_DB7** PORTB.3
  #DEFINE LCD_DB6 PORTB.2

Later,
Clint

Thank you.

Sorted. Update on in all versions.

Whilst you are at it this also looks wrong:

#DEFINE LCD_RS PORTA,2

shouldn't that , be a . ?

[Anobium]

Good spot. I found other ocurrances of the same error. All sorted.

Thank you.
