Where,...Positron Installer And Link

[M3NDex]

I am a licensed user. I purchased a license a few years ago, but my compiler is still called Proton Basic. Could you please tell me which installer I need and where I can download the version called Positron Compiler? Please provide me with the download link.

Hello!
Positron is a different product and Proton's license is not suitable.

Hi,
It really depends on how long ago, if it was Positron you would have been sent a link to a file from Les. This will have a specific file just for you as it has your name when compiled.
This version still shows a Proton if you are using the IDE that it installed. If you do a successful compile for an 8 bit device and press F2 for the assembler code you would see your name and the version 4.x.x.x

Thank you, RGV250, for your detailed information. I hope that in the future, the owner of Positron will change the compiler name from Proton to Positron whenever the software is updated, rather than changing only the version number.

Hi,
The problem is that Les didn't write the IDE so that will never happen.
If you want to you can use Positron Studio which has been written specifically for Positron.

Thanks Bob.., For me easy to use a Positron and very clear information, Positron Studio looks good. However, one problem is that it can be a little difficult to use because it does not clearly show which line of code contains the error.

I compile yesterday my piece of program with an error,
Positron pointed perfect which line contains the error (twice EndIf).

You can try Visual Studio Code for which Atomix has written excellent Positron plugin.

Initially I was reluctant to switch from Proton IDE to Visual Studio Code, as I am with any change in any software, but after I've given it a try for a week or two, now it is my favourite IDE.
