BBC Basic for the PDP-11
|
|
|
|
This is a fork of the excellent BBC Basic interpreter for
|
|
PDP-11 by J. G. Harston. All credit for this work must
|
|
go to them. This is merely a few bugfixes and improvements.
|

* Swapped words of the `MT_ReadTime` function
|
|
|
|
Running under RT11 5.4 it was found that the `TIME` variable
|
|
was ticking around 60 million times too fast. Experiments
|
|
showed that it was likely the words of the result being swapped.
|
|
Patching BASIC to return the words in the opposite order
|
|
([1691d98](https://github.com/MajenkoProjects/pdp11-bbcbasic/commit/1691d98c82ee79d97af0d3e298ff0eebfdac6989))
|
|
fixed the problem and TIME now ticks at the expected centisecond
|
|
rate
