Good even, Proginoskes!

It took longer than I thought (everything always does), but I've finally added quite a bit of syntactic sugar.

I implemented your ideas (append, prepend, surround), and also several flavors of "delete" (rather than having replace "x" with "").

I haven't switched the default on "recursive" yet. I'll keep thinking on that one.

I actually think I'm going to take a break on TTL itself (barring bugs) to refocus on the Eyrie Productions ebooks again (hopefully improving the quality of what I've produced so far).

Sorry to hear about your non-starter with FreeBasic! I tried to google "Darwin Machines," and I found two options:

• A line of computer chasis that look like they were made by Schwinn, and;
• An OS derived from Mac's OS.

I think it's probably the OS. Let me know if there are any BASIC compilers that work in Darwin OS. Maybe a conversion would be quite easy? In fact, I see that QB64 has a Mac OS version, and TTL actually began its life in QB64 before I made the switch to FreeBasic.

If QB64 works in Darwin OS, let me know. I know exactly how to do that conversion. It would take less than an hour.

Anyway, thanks again for your comments and suggestions. I used them!

Edit: I guess it, uh, helps if I post the hyperlink: TTL
