Version 1.2 of GSoft BASIC, the newest Apple IIGS language from the Byte
Works, is now available. Version 1.2 fixes several bugs and adds a few new
features to GSoft BASIC 1.1.

The new features include a HEX$ command for converting numbers to
hexadecimal format; two new pragmas for blocking CTRL-C interrupts while a
program runs, and blocking tool errors when a program completes; support for
named labels instead of just line numbers; the ability to jump out of a
structured statement; support for type characters in tool interface files;
and optional parameters for the RENUMBER command.

Registered owners of GSoft BASIC can get the upgrade free when they order
any other product from the Byte Works, Inc. If you are not ordering another
product, you can still get the upgrade worldwide for a $5 shipping and
handling charge.

GSoft BASIC, The FREE Version! has also been updated. You can download GSoft
BASIC, The FREE Version! Version 1.2 from the Byte Works web site.

Delphi, on our web site at http://www.hypermall.com/byteworks.
