I am writing a code that simulates receiving text from the serial port using the serial window. When I debug this code step by step and enter the text, it works fine, but when I run the code and enter the text all at once not all of the characters are received! For example if I want to enter "OK", in debugging step by step I enter O then K and it is perfect. However, when I run the code and type "OK" quickly, I may receive "K" only or nothing at all, while if I type it slowly (which I don't think is the case in serial communication) it is received correctly! Can you help me with this? Thank You!
Here:
while (RI==0); But it would be a whole lot easier to see if the OP took the trouble to properly lay out the code!
And a few comments wouldn't go amiss; eg,
while (RI==0); // Wait until RI is set
I missed that one because I (once? still?) work(ed) with a debugger that would not set a breakpount on
while();
but would set one on
while() { }
and thus since have 'outlawed' while();
anyhow, the second form is a lot clearer
of course, had the OP bothered to comment I would not have missed it.

More probably, you missed it because no "proper" code should have any actions performed to the right of an opening curly brace.
With time, we learn pattern patching just as we learn speed-reading normal text based on patterns and not individual characters.
Anyone posting code that isn't properly tagged and properly indented have waived their right to get any real help.
Surely that's a privilege - not a right - anyhow...?
