The following is only for those who have added the TALLY routine from the manual AND the MACHINE CODE SORT routine from Tom Woods’ Breakthrough newsletter. When the mc sort is added to a program containing the tally function two bugs appear. The first and most important is that you can no longer do an auto search with the printer output set to “Y”. Instead of automatically going through each matching file, the program stops at each one. The other bug only occurs if you do a search with the Tally in effect and immediately follow it with the mc sort. It won’t work! No damage seems to be done however and if you try to sort again it will work. To solve both these problems add or change the following lines:
3 LET J$="": LET A=0: LET X$="": LET T=0: LET T0=0
7229 IF J$="T" THEN CLS : GO TO 1049+(Y$="C")
9210 IF Y AND J$="T" THEN GO TO 150
