    I'm using LinAXEpad with Ubuntu. It turns out my TAB size was EIGHT spaces!

    I did as you suggested (I hadn't noticed the forward slash). The 1's and 0's were under the words "Coil 1" and "Coil 2" before posting, then moved to the right once posted! Using Rich (BB code) as in post #3, they stay where I put them. There seems to be a difference in the space-count for...

    Still not right. Try with code=rich: let PinsB = %11000000 'B.4,B.5 Energised B.7,B.6? pause w2 let PinsB = %01000000 'B.5 Energised B.6? pause w2 let PinsB = %01100000 'B.5,B.6 Energised pause w2 let PinsB = %00100000 'B.6 Energised B.5? pause w2 let PinsB = %00110000 'B.6,B.7...

    The answer is no. Here's what I had before posting: Thanks for your reply, @Ally Cat, I'll try your advice next.

    Here's post #2 of "Advice required re Bipolar Stepper motors", cut and pasted as is. The 1's and 0's have miraculously gone back to where they should be! Will they still be there after posting? Here goes.... #PICAXE08M2 ; Drives a bipolar stepper motor using two PICAXE outputs, an L293D driver...

    Advice required re Bipolar Stepper motors

    Dear Katy, I can't get the hang of the forum editor. What I see is what I want but not what I get. In the above post, the 1's and 0's were in the columns "Coil 1" and "Coil 0" before I posted. The B.(x)'s were a tabulation away from the original comments. What's wrong with me? Disgruntled...

    Advice required re Bipolar Stepper motors

    Hi, I never played much with stepper motors, things that get hot worry me! Your comments don't seem to match your code: let PinsB = %10000000 'B.4 Energised B.7? pause w2 let PinsB = %11000000 'B.4,B.5 Energised B.7,B.6? pause w2 let PinsB =...

    DO...WHILE/UNTIL Loops???

    For those who don't know, Open Office and Libre Office work with Windows, Linux and Mac. They're both free of charge. No keys, no activation, no licenses, no hassle, no Microsoft.

    PICAXE on ARM-based Win-11 supported?

    It looks like no-one has, but if you have access to a raspberrypi 4 or 5 with 8G of RAM, you could try it yourself. https://raspberrytips.com/windows-11-on-raspberry-pi/

    Learning from Arduino. Three LCD Libraries for the M2 & X2 chips

    OK. I got the same error using Winaxepad and I no longer have PE6 installed, so I'll leave it there.
