Now for an updated (3.0.3) version of KiXGolf 3...

This version now prints the KiXtart version under wich it was started, like this:
code:
KixGolf v3.0.3 score = 460, running under KiXtart v4.10
{edit} another example:
KixGolf v3.0.3 score = 460, running under KiXtart v4.11 RC 1
{/edit}
And here it is:
code:
; KixGolf.kix  (Version 3)
;
$Version = "3.0.3"	; (2002/08/24@13:15) - Fernando Madruga
			; Now prints KiXtart version too
;
;$Version = "3.0.2"	; (2002/08/23@18:45) - Fernando Madruga
			; Now prints the version code with the score
;
; V 3.0.1	(2002/08/23@18:30) - Fernando Madruga
;		Fixed handling of CHR(127) and added version info
;
; This function scores the specified file and returns
; the KixGolf score. That is the total number of key strokes
; used to build a script not counting comments, spaces, tabs,
; or any ASCII character above 126.
;
; The script will start counting on "odd" (1,3,5,...) occurrences
; of ";!" and the script will stop counting after "even" (0,2,4,...)
; instances of ";!". Note that ";!" must be placed starting in column
; number 1.
;
;A debug mode has been added in this version. The debug mode
;is controlled with the use of ";~" at the beginning of the line like
; the count controller (;!) above. You start and stop debugging
;as many time as you like while counting is enabled.
;
;Debug data is written to a file in the same directory that this
;program resides. The file name is that of the target file name with
;".debug" as an extension. Data will only be written while counting is
;active.
;
;The data written if the character being analyzed, it's ASCII decimal
;value, if it was counted or not, and a running total.
;
;Syntax: %tmp%\kix32 kixgolf.kix $F=Kixgolf.kix

; $F must be initialized on the command line.
