Using Win 7 and TCC 16 :

~\Work> echo abcde > x.txt

TCC: Unknown command "*setdos"

abcde

(%?=2, %_?=0)
~\Work> echo %@line[x.txt,0]
abcde

(%?=2, %_?=0)
~\Work>

Where is the unknown command "*setdos" error coming from?

 

[Charles Dye]

Yes, SafeChars calls SETDOS internally.

It used to call the internal command directly, through an API which no longer exists in v17. So now I call it a different way, through Command(). Apparently the leading * is a problem when alias expansion is disabled. I'll get a fix up sometime today.

Thanks.
