Re : Crashed and Lost
When your program really decides to crash it will lose all the code on from
where the error occured. I think it even loses that line. Basically there is
nothing you can do once that happens, that code is gone.
Why?
Well lets examine the times I know this sort of thing to have happened:
1) When I caused a Divide Overflow error and
2) When you caused a Critical Error
Basically 2 bad errors. Normally a program would just crash but I don't think EX
does all the interpreting straight of. So when your prog dies I think
DOS/Causeway still has the file open and so after the crash something about your
files true size gets lost and it only knows the byte it was up to. Which is what
it sets it to be, so that file is trimmed.
Hope you had a back up. I luckily didn't lose too much work when I killed my
prog. ( I sent a negative number to a mouse interrupt subroutine :\ )
