It does. However, the current release of the compiler does not handle it correctly for native mode devices (I believe you'll get an internal error). That problem has been corrected in the version currently being tested. |

I think it would also be halpful if there were a standardized method for querying the ZX chip to ascertain the VM version - i.e Call SerialNumber(SerNum). Perhaps this could also be added to the "Hello world" program.
I'm trying to finalize standalone downloaders for Windows, Linux (and Intel OS-X, later) and I would like to incorporate this check.
Once my application is loaded, it reports the VM version but it would be nice to get it from a newly minted ZX-40a or ZX-40p. |

At startup, the firmware version number is displayed, e.g.:
| Code: | ZBasic v2.4.10
RAM Size is 65024 bytes
