mc1000: string processing not working fine as on zxspectrum - nitrofurano - 09-01-2012
during the process of using zxbasic-compiler for creating stuff for mc1000/gem1000/charlemagne, besides having problem with rnd, i'm also having problems when dealing with string processing (like using libraries for drawing text)

there you have the .wav which opens on Mess emulator ('mess mc1000' or 'mess mc1000 -ramsize 48k' - scrolllock+insert for accessing tab - enter 'tload' - and select and play the .wav file in the tab options - it takes almost 2 minutes loading ) - there is the source code as well
i don't know if the string commands are related to zx-spectrum rom routines, stack issues, or something else
btw, is there some other method i can help to test string processing, like snippets? i think this issue is somehow concerning, since the zxbasic-compiler project is being extended to other targets like this one, sms, and some others in embrionary stage (like msx, amstrad-cpc, mattel-aquarius, enterprise, and sam-coupé)
if more people here is trying to use zxbasic-compiler for creating binary or assembly stuff targeting other hardware than zx-spectrum, please share your feedback - and what and how code must be tested, and issues fixed or avoided
