 Welcome ,
You are an α among αs seeking α

I'm sure you know a lot more about lots of areas of computer usage than I do . CoSy is my escape from having to deal with a lot of that jumble .

The central issue of concern is that the 2007 version of Reva Forth CoSy is currently built in causes false positives on some malware programs . I just upgraded to Windows 10 and Windows Defender now seems to see ?:\4thCoSy\bin\reva.exe as malware .

I think the best procedure is to go to Windows Defender in the Control Panel , choose Settings in the upper right , then scroll down to Add an exclusion and Exclude the folder  J:\4thCoSy or whatever the drive letter may be before anything else .  This is an area you may understand how to deal with better than I do . It looks like the main documentation for Defender is at http://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/5924-windows-defender-exclusions-add-remove-windows-10-a.html

See http://cosy.com/CoSy/4thCoSy/y16/WindowsDefenderExclusion.html for screenshots of the procedure .

I have included a .zip which I believe are never normally examined in any case .

I have also included a .zip of the "final" version of Reva , 201101 . I have never seen any indication that it has false alarm problems . That's a motivation to move forward to that release and I'll bring anybody up to date on the issues I ran into .

The  IUP GUI will bomb if the window size is altered after being written into . There are other apparently GUI related bombs which have been lower priority than getting the kernel correct . But , that's just another reason to understand that control-s is your best friend . That's some of the oldest and necessarily reliable vocabulary .

The IUP interface also needs to be updated or replaced , too .  But those discussions are down the road .

Those are the 2 issues I think are critical . To riff on an illustrious fellow memeber of my lastname-granfalloon , these are a couple of small tasks for a language community , large for one man .

Awaiting your first response .

Bob A
