Makes perfect sense. Maybe nobody cares enough about Basic, or figures there are a zillion better performing options? Seems like an optimization like that would have been done at some point Yeah, the computed goto is odd. Back in the day, I used it and some conditional math to greatly shorten and improve performance in some programs. My first machine was only 16k. Using the graphics system in any meaningful way cost a lot in terms of program space. So, every dirty trick, including poking new addresses into string variable address pointers to overlap the graphics screen got done. Absolutely terrible code though. I am sure if I saw some of that code today, I would have a bugger of a time sorting it out.
