Thanks.

You can tell the Freedos people you would like it included, as an actual user.

I'll leave the feature request open for Howard to comment about including the functionality in the interpreter itself.

I see, thank you for your answer. Maybe informing the people from the FreeDOS project would be a good thing so they ship BWBASIC with a working RENUM executable in on of their next FreeDOS versions.

On the other side, it would also be nice to have that command in the BWBasic interpreter in the first place.

I understand. But the BWBasic version of FreeDOS 1.3 does not ship with a renum DOS command.

I see that the executable isn't provided in the download folder though. You need to compile it yourself. Alternatively, there is a precompiled binary on the PDOS/386 hard disk image available from http://pdos.org - it is a win32 executable. It's also in customb.zip.

You have run "renum" instead bwbasic. It is a separate executable.

Here's a picture of a short example:

Hi Oliver. I'm a bit confused. Are you aware that there is already a renum command shipped with bwbasic? I'm not sure how to use it, but it's there. Are you saying it is insufficient for what you are trying to do? If so, it would be good if you could explain what is wrong with it.

For compatibility reasons to other BASIC programs like GWBasic it would be nice to have the RENUM command available for old code with line numbers to reorder the line numbers.

RENUM[new number],[old number][,incrementR]]

Hey Howard, can you share the code for bwbasic 3.30? Also, FYI, I have created a GitHub repository: https://github.com/nerun/bwbasic. If you want access, let me know.
