Not important, but something that I have been wondering about for a long time.

OK, so for now I'm using Crimson Editor to do my programs (and when I'm done with my QBert program and start a new one, I'll try the visual bB editor).

Anyway, when I compile a multi-bank program I get something like the picture below. Information on the banks appears three times. Why is this? Is this because I'm seeing output from 2600basic.exe, dasm.exe, and one of the other programs involved in building the program into an executable?

ETA - Looking again, it appears to all be from DASM. Is DASM doing 3 passes maybe?

Yes, it echoes the output for each pass. I consider this to be a Dasm bug, which was recently submitted to the developers.

OK, I thought it might be something like that. Thank you for satisfying my curiosity.
