The BASIC Elite's first PHP project, SourceCoder, is now in public beta. This advanced script will take any .8*p BASIC program file and output HTML-formatted source code. Programmers have long needed to manually type out BASIC source code if they wish to include it as a convenience to those without GraphLinks or for consulting while porting a program. This program makes it that in two clicks such source code is automatically generated. Imagined, coded, and created by Kerm Martian, the script works on any website or computer running PHP v4.0.1 or later. This beta version of the script can render most of the TI-83 and TI-83+/SE/84+/SE tokens, although the higher ones from ti83plus.inc lines 3416-3702 are still missing. In addition, many of the symbols present on the TI-83/+/SE/84+/SE will be converted to small GIFs for ease of viewing. You can experiment with this new script here:
