For loop with Byte doesn't work

[Niffo]

This code doesn't work ... The MacOS version of PB doesn't like bytes ?

Code: Select all

for i.b = 1 to 10
    debug i
next i

Hi Niffo,

You're right, the code doesn't work, but MacOS likes bytes.
I think, the loop-variable "i" always is LONG, so it cannot work.

Also try i.w and i.l

Maybe Fred can say more
