A subroutine is....

Several lines of code that can be called from any part of a program.  Subroutines are helpful in reducing coding size and program size by removing repeated code.

no u dont need to run it in asm(), no shell runs fine + u dont have to worry about all the other crap of goin thru mirage, so on and so on....but since what no shell does is, allow u to use programs from the archives, u just need to compile it and then archive it!! i had the same problem at the beggining, no shell does work fine, and ur prgm is fine...no adays i just use ion....that works best for everything

saintrunner, welcome to Omnimaga!
What you are stating in your post, as I understand it, is somewhat erroneous. However, I cannot be at all certain on account of the extreme difficulty I encountered in attempting to decipher what you wrote. Please, please edit your post for correct capitalization, punctuation, spelling, and all the other standards for written English. If not that, then at least make a decent attempt at it.
I normally do not complain about poor English from others, but that's because I can easily understand what they are saying. If nothing else, make your post easy to understand.
Of course, I do not intend to offend. You are welcome here, and I am obliged to ask you to consider introducing yourself once you can write more coherently. :)

many people here have English as a secondary language, and thus would find that difficult to read/ google translate.
(nicer way to put it :P )

Yeah I agree. Omni is more lax on grammar and spelling (on certain other sites in the past, they yelled at people for 3 mistakes even if it was their first post ever) but it's best to do an effort at least, so people can understand you. Also some people use Google Translate to read English messages, which doesn't work if a message contains many spelling mistakes or MSN-like talk. It's best to spend an extra half a minute per post to make sure they're easy to read/translate, else people may not spend the extra 5-10 minutes required to dechiper the post and may simply not reply to it.

That said, welcome to the forums and I hope you enjoy your stay. :)

I apologize, I forgot about other languages. I was simply stating that it is more beneficial to use ion for all your compiling needs. I tends to work easier. Also if you chose to use no shell, you must remember to archive your program before running it.

Well the thing is that the majority of people on calc forums uses Doors CS or Noshell, which can run archived programs directly from the PRGM menu, even ASM ones, and you don't even need the Asm() command. This is why most people now compile for no shell. Ion is also a good option so your program will run in all 3 major shells (Ion, MirageOS and Doors CS7), but the majority of people still mainly use Doors CS nowadays it seems, since it had more features.

Ion is kinda obsolete nowadays because it eats like 1600 bytes of RAM after installing (even if you delete the install program), so a lot of large games cannot run with it. Gemini 3D is an example, and I could barely even run Dying Eyes. Also it tends to crash more often on any OS higher than 1.12.

Just use the backup feature :)

No matter, just keep making good posts. :)
I would agree that, in general, compiling for ION is the best choice because all other commonly used shells (MirageOS, DoorsCS, etc.) are compatible with its format.
Also, I think you meant "unarchive"; the OS will only run programs if they are in RAM. (Archiving puts programs into Archive and out of RAM.)
Edit: Do you mean compiled code or source code? If the latter, Keoni's point applies.
Edit 2: Didn't see your post there, DJ!

I was about to say [/flamewar], but seen the situation this is not a good idea. I am really sorry. I was not aware of the fact that epic7 was responding on a previous post of yours. You see it bothers me that people go offtopic after the problems are solved. Given the fact that I already broke a rule even before it existed i will be extra carefull not to provoke anyone anymore.

Well the thing is that there are much worse things that some people did on the Internet than just going off-topic for a short while, such as someone just mindlessly bashing someone else's project, although of course if someone always went off-topic it would be bad. Anyway apology accepted. Just don't do it again.
