Locate has been removed from BlitzPlus.
I use this code to replicate the old Blit2D Locate/Print commands. You need to set up a graphics display before using the functions.

include this code at the beginning of your program:

; Locate/Print for Blitz+
Global locateX,locateY

Function Locate(x,y)
	locateX=(x-1)*StringWidth("W") : locateY=(y-1)*FontHeight()
End Function

Function Print(txt$)
	Text locateX,locateY,txt$
End Function
