Okay, wish I could figure this one out. I am going through the Binary Moon Tutorial, which is excellent by the way, and I am running the fog program and all I get is a black screen. I've compiled and run in step through mode and all I get all the way through is a black screen as can be seen in the attachment. The extra suspend for key command was so I can do a screen capture while keeping the program running to show you the black screen. Any ideas??? I copied and pasted the code straight from the tutorial and it looks fine to me, but I'm sure I'm overlooking something.

When you have SYNC ON the screen won't update till the SYNC command is seen. Try adding a SYNC right before the SUSPEND FOR KEY command (by the way the WAIT KEY command does the same thing as SUSPEND FOR KEY without typing as much).
