Can you cut and paste this code and show me what your screen looks like, thanks:

DO
Print("Hello £££")
Sync()
LOOP

Lee, I also get the same outcome as Rickynzx. I wrote up a quick program and it seems that only part of the ASCII chart (33 - 127) is supported...well printed.

This is the same problem as printing accented characters. It appears to be on the 'to do' list.

put the sync after the endif on the second example and it should work.

Your first example is like:

//print this when the mouse is down
if GetPointerstate ( ) = 1 then print ( GetPointerX ())

//print this all the time
print (getpointery())
sync()

Shall we play a game?” - Joshua
