ever think of making an ASM prgm that translate Basic into a ASM prgm?
Also about the plane, why no a wireless link so you and a friend can play across the room ranther than with a cord that is like 2 inches long (i know it is longer) |

| Sorry to burst your bubble Jesusfreak but converting an basic program into assembly is pointless. They are two very different languages. A single command in basic would take several in asm thus leaving you with a program 4 to 5 times the size of the original, if not more. The only way to dodge that obstacle is to start programming asm. |

And what would be "Advanced" in this Text Editor apart Hot Keys ?
well, I must admit that I don't find the utility of another Basic Editor....
anyway, it must be a quite difficult project |

It would be, but then you could make the editor use small font, so you can see more of the basic program at one time, thus making it "Advanced", and easier to program with.  |

Hello
I have started making a windows program that converts basic to asm. I agree that the asm programs will be bigger in size but think about this idea.
If you have a BASIC program with this code:
Code:
ClrHome
My program would convert it to:
Code:
B_CALL(_ClrLCDFull)
But if you were to write that program in asm from the beginning what would it look like:
Code:
B_CALL(_ClrLCDFull)
So if a program was converted it would look the same and be the same size as the ones you hand code in asm
If you disagree then please express you thoughts

After doing that, you will find out that bcall(_clearlcdfull) is not the same as clrhome.
Basically, clrhome is
bcall(_homeup)
bcall(_clearlcdfull) |

I have already found a bug in the conversion process i didn't have the _homeup rom call. thanks for that.
If you want to help me make all the conversions then please tell me because i don't have heaps of time to work out the conversions and them test them all. If you want to help me (please) then just post here or send me an email.
Thanks, Jono |

I really find this project interesting, but I cannot do all the project I'd like to do, because I don't have time enough either... (asm programming, websites etc.).
Sorry, it's just a matter of time :-/ |
