Hi65 v7.0 is released. Hi65 is an unreleased computer from Commodore featuring 256-color graphics, a 3.54 MHz processor and a maximum of 8 MB of RAM. Hi65 is a high-level Commodore 65 emulator.

Hi65 v7.0 Changelog:
– Changed the types of the program counter, data counter and expression counter from unsigned integer to unsigned long to allow for longer programs.
– Modified the keyboard handling functions so that they yield CPU time every time they are called
– Fixed a bug in the INPUT# function that used to leave the file open after the program terminates for attempting to read past EOF.
– Added a check in the LET function that stops the execution of a program if a string is over 255 characters long.
– Implemented string chaining with the operator + , with an arbitrary number of strings (up to the limit of 255 characters).
– Fixed a bug in the PRINT function that prevented the cursor from going to the next line when a single instruction displays more characters than a line can fit.
– Implemented the LEN instruction, to know the length of a string or chain of strings.
– Implemented the RESTORE instruction, to move the data counter to the desired line or to the beginning of the data section.
– Added checks in both the frontend and the main executable to force the emulator to run in full screen when launched from the frontend, to avoid an « invalid video mode » error.
– Added a check that recognizes attempts to execute an empty program file and skips them.
