bas2tap bug in DEF FN x$()

[C.Born]

Hi
i have a piece off basic on which bas2tap fails

Code: Select all

  10 DEF FN D$(a)="HALLO"
  20 PRINT FN D$()
  30 LET e$=FN d$()

it gives an error

Code: Select all

Desktop/zx/zx/gigaflip$ ./bas2tap DEFtest.bas DEFtest.tap

BAS2TAP v2.6 by Martijn van der Heide of ThunderWare Research Center

Creating output file DEFtest.tap
ERROR in line 30, statement 1 - Bad assignment expression type
Listing as far as done contains 2 lines.

if i change 'e$' into 'e' it works, but thats an actual error, then a NUMBERvar get a STRINGvar assigned ??
BTW i think that line 10 should be able to be
10 DEF FN D$()="HALLO"
without a defined variable in the naming structure like
DEF FN r()=12345
DEF FN r$()="12345"
which both works, but NOT in bas2tap, which INSIST on a variable inside the naming

Code: Select all

/Desktop/zx/zx/gigaflip$ ./bas2tap DEFtest.bas DEFtest.tap

i have to test zmakebas for this

In my experience zmakebas is much better than bas2tap.
