Several times, when I move an item into another directory with [DIR.FCN], [RMOV] (= REFMOVE), reference program in x-stack, this action causes a shutdown of the Plus42 App. Not always, but so often, that Android recommends to set the app in 'deep standby'. Is this problem known?

No, I wasn't aware of problems with REFMOVE. Could you send me your state file, and instructions on how to reproduce the crash, or if it's not easily reproducible, just the details of the most recent REFMOVE operation resulting in a crash?

Hello Thomas
Enclosed please find the actual state file.
I wanted to learn the DIRS functions and have stored my programs in the directories DIV, GEO, GRPH, MATH, PHYS. Later I have started to move them back to the root directory. During these actions, the shutdowns happened at [RMOV].
Then I have deleted directories DIV, GEO, GRPH.
Do these informations help you to find out more?

Thanks!

I was able to diagnose the problem using your state file. I uploaded a new release, 1.3.14, with a fix for this crash.

Please let me know if the problem persists after updating.

Thank you Thomas. I have now upgraded to 1.3.14, and it works!

You have really made a brilliant job in such a short time - excellent!

Kind regards from Switzerland / Hans
