Please distribute freely but UNMODIFIED. If you have contributions,
you may send them to MIKE AUDLEMAN at FIDO address 1:154/288 or on the
Quick_Basic FIDO echo. Please send them as ASCII text only, no
formatted doccuments (WP, W4WIN etc.). This is not an OFFICIAL
document and as such all information is provided ASIS and no warrenties
are implied as to the acuracy of anything included here. The questions
and answers here are take from the Quick_Basic echo that I read weekly
and reflect general questions that seem to appear on a regular basis. I
write this in an effort to reduce the load on the net and plan to
release new or updated versions on a monthly basis unless the load
seems such that another interval is warrented.
Since this is NOT a CODE SNIPPIT publication, code here will be limited
severely. Only enough code to present information will be included. At
this time, I do not know if there is anyone maintaining a snippit file,
but if someone is, please forward the name and fido address that it can
be freq'd from and I will include the info on it here.
This publication is not connected in any way to any commercial
concern, mine or otherwise and is free to all. No information
contained herin is to be considered as an advertisment for any product,
consider it as INFORMATION only.
One last note, I do not own any version of PDS so I am unable to test
ANY of the information with regard to that package. I do have QB45 and
have tested MOST but NOT all on it. Additionally, much of this
information will not be compatible to QBasic provided with MSDOS 5.0
and above since it is missing many of the features of the full compiler
version.
Thank you.

"How do I get arguments from the command line?"
"How do I make QB45 stop converting COMMAND$ to uppercase?"
"How do I make QuickBasic exit with an ErrorLevel?"
"How do I load QB with two LIBs?"
"Are there any good books on QuickBasic?"
"How do I get a number from a string into an Integer?"
"How do I remove spaces from a string?"
"What are 'String Descriptors'?"
"What is the difference between QBASIC and QuickBasic?"
"How do I convert from a HEX number to DECIMAL or DECIMAL to HEX?"
"How do I make QuickBasic reboot the system?"
"Could anybody show me how `INKEY$' works please?"
"How do you do ARCSIN and ARCCOS?"
"How do the AND, OR, and XOR work?"
"How do I seperate command line arguments?"
*> "How do I get arguments from the command line?"
Use the COMMAND$ function in QB, QB45 and PDS thus:
Commandline$=COMMAND$
One caviat here is that QB and QB45 converts the command line to
UPPERCASE only. I am not sure about PDS on the uppercase.
