Wano text editor crashes on large display when trying to display
backwards quote ( 60h )
BUGZILLIA #6096 of wano.asm text editor
Jan 13,2011
[ old wano text editor which crashes big display on backwards quote
96 below tilde. ]
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.emulators.ms-windows.wine/msg/53ba2981d5b42879?dmode=source&hl=en
The old wano text editor CRASHES ON LARGE DISPLAY MODE when trying
to display
backwards delete ( Character code 060H or 96 decimal ) and the tiny
display mode
shows an incorrect representation of that character that draws a line
through the
previous character and a dot on the line above it. This is a serious
BUG
that was not caught until Thursday May 26,2011 because the backwards
quote is a rarely
used text character.
This bug could have been called BUGZILLIA 6096
(The 60h is the hex code and 96 is the decimal number of the failed
character)
wano.asm is an independent text editor that can run on wine + Linux
in addition to
Microsoft Windows 98 SE.
An attempt is being made to fix wano.asm text editor at the link
[ newest wano text editor as of Saturday May 28,2011 ]
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.emulators.ms-windows.wine/msg/514171c2b5252cef?dmode=source&hl=en
which should be more reliable than the old version of wano.asm
wine + linux and windows 98 can use
wano.exe filename.txt
to open a text file.
ReactOS and newer Microsoft Windows Vista_Mojave_7
requires starting wano by itself then ctrl R
to open a already exsisting text file
wano.exe
^R
filename.txt
------------------------------------------------------------
casm3.c is an assembler program written in c
that can assemble wano.asm

It might become neccessary to go back to using a c language assembler
if newer versions of wine regress to the point where Microsoft.NET
and
its csharp are no longer supported by wine+Linux so the more recently
developed
casm4.cs assembler is no longer supported.
