    I'm pretty sure those are just for Allegro things, using the Fix class. I don't even see the fix.h file anywhere, or know where the defs, and related functions are being loaded. I skimmed to find that in the past, but it isn't among my files, so ...

    Either way, a fixed width integer can be 32b signed. If the values aren't 32b signed longs, they're 32b wide signed fixed ints. I'm pretty sure they are signed longs though... I'll probably wait for the 'promised day' to do anything more about this, but I did again glance through the lexer, and now need more alcohol. We should probably unflag this topic for now.

    For what it's worth, the lexer also has a bug that allows compilation of a script with a ? token i it. It gives a lexical error warning, but compiles it anyhow; which, as was reported to me, can be a problem if a user hits ? instead of / in a calculation. It's because the lexer defines ? and ^ as %token SINGLECHAR, and is set up to report a lexical error for them, but not to halt compilation. :/

    That's more of an oversight than a true bug, but it feels as if it'll be mad easy to correct.
