ELSE issue? (*solved*)
#1
Have you had enough of me yet? :-D

I'm having a weird issue with ELSE, but I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or not. Take a look at this test program:
Code:
dim num as ubyte

cls
num = 1
test()
num = 2
test()
num = 3
test()
num = 4
test ()

sub test
    IF num = 1 THEN
        PRINT "1"
    ELSEIF num = 2 THEN
        PRINT "2"
    ELSEIF num = 3 THEN
        PRINT "3"
    ELSE
        PRINT "X"
    END IF
    PRINT "---"
end sub

I would expect the output from this to be like this:
Code:
1
---
2
---
3
---
X
---

But it's actually like this:
Code:
1
---
2
---
3
X
---
X
---

Condition "3" is running correctly, but the final ELSE block is also being processed so you get two lines output if num is 3. Have I messed up the syntax there? The behaviour is certainly different to how it used to be, as an old program that used to be okay is now failing.

I've tried this in 2100 and also 1866 and it does the same in both, so it must've been a while since I compiled it! :-)
