I am trying to put a shell program together. "LOAD: Will load another basic program into memory and start executing it from the beginning." I can see it doesn't return when it is finished which surprises me. Why isn't it running the other program which is in my flash?
Code: Select allprint version()
load "\uploads\blink.bas"
print ip()
print id() Output:
Code: Select allESP Basic 3.0.Alpha 66
Loading . . . . \uploads\blink.bas
Done...

Not sure... but I seem to remember when developing automatic mirrored PRIMARY and SECONDARY chained scripts last year that the filenames were case-sensitive, so it's worth checking that the embedded script filename and actual filename are identical, else it may be ignored as not found.
