integer arithmetic, enhanced array/GOSUB diagnostics), --safe=sanitize
|
|
- 16-bit real-mode DOS target (Makefile.dos16): 128KB standalone MZ
|
|
executable, no DOS extender required, far-heap TUI screen buffer
|
|
- 32-bit DOS/4GW target (Makefile.dos): 175KB LE executable
|
|
- Tested on FreeDOS 1.4

|
|
- CHAIN/COMMON/RUN "file" via runtime delegation
|
|
- Token embedding, string comparison, division-by-zero detection
|
|
- Compiler optimizations: constant folding, dead code elimination,
