Q_Liberator malaise

The old keywords are switched off by default in FI2 but if a program expects the old ones they can be switched on again.

I find it strange why the existing keywords always have to be changed just because someone had another idea for SMSQ/E.

"always" <> once in forty years. And that one time, that was handled like the fall of the Roman Empire by some people back then...

I suppose that Sbasic has so many keywords, it's bound to happen sooner or later. There are lists of keyword names used out there, but I don't remember if they existed at the time. And when it comes to operating system (or rather, Basic interpreter) versus an application for who gets to use a name, the operating system will usually win, I guess. Although as Wolfgang has been involved with both, it's a bit of an unusual situation with this one!
