Description

In version 1.0.0 (B8), the error messages are working better. Although the error line is reported properly, the column number in the line is always returning 1. For example, the following code should produce an error at column 66:

E$=" the Heavens and the earth!"
Print "This is a test."; : Print "In the beginning","god created"E$ ' This should return an error at column 66
' It's at that point we see that a comma or semicolon is missing.^
'                                                                66
End

...since it's at that point we know that a semicolon or comma has been omitted. Instead, the error is reported at byte 1.
(In fact, ALL errors are reported at byte 1.):
