add command TEXT from TBXL

[lhuven]

It would be great, if possible, to have the command implemented in Fast Basic, to be able to display text from the string at position x, y, also in the graphics mode, as it's done with TEXT command in Turbo Basic XL 1.5:

TEXT x, y, A$
TEXT x, y, "HELLO"

Thank you very much :)

and all variations, e.g.:

TEXT X,Y,0
TEXT X,Y,HEX$(A)
TEXT X,Y,SIN(X)

etc...

Are you aware of the POSITION x,y command?

POSITION 5,10:PRINT "text"

Or shorthand:

POS.5,10:?"text"

Then you can leverage the powerful PRINT command:

POS.8,8
?"Hello, ";name$;". Your score is ";score

Are you aware of the POSITION x,y command?

POSITION 5,10:PRINT "text"

It will not let you display characters in graphics mode. TEXT in TBXL works similar to POS. X, Y: PRINT "TEXT" in GR.0, but in graphics modes like GR.7, 8, 15 etc it will actually display characters in graphics window, not colours.
