qb64/internal/help/ERDEV$.txt
Luke Ceddia b586eafd3b Integrated _BLINEINPUT into regular LINE INPUT for BINARY files
LINE INPUT will now use the faster method if passed a file handle
that has been opened FOR BINARY. As such, the _BLINEINPUT command
has been removed.

qb64.bas now takes advantage of this for reading from '$include files,
at least in Include Manager 1. Some tweaking of internal/source/main.txt
was required to get things into a sane state, so I'm holing off changing
the compiler any further so the auto-builder can make sure everything's
smoothed over.

Note: Everything should still compile as normal; I'm just being overcautious.

ERDEV$ is a string function that returns the name of the last device to declare an error.
{{PageSyntax}}
::device$ = ERDEV$
*'''[[Keywords currently not supported by QB64|Currently NOT supported in QB64!]]'''
* It will contain the 8-byte character device name if the error was declared by a character device (such as a printer), while it will contain the 2-byte block name (A:, B:, etc.) if the device was not a character device.
* It is set when [[ERDEV]] is set, meaning that DOS has encountered a error that prevents it from continuing.
