  tiny basic as a subroutine
Posted by: James D Jarvis - 07-28-2023, 03:37 PM - Forum: Programs - Replies (18)

Run a tiny basic interpreter inside a qb64 program. Sorry no string variables at this point.  I implemented a crude but simple means of passing variables into and out of the array space the interpreter uses. Will also load and save tiny basic programs. I added a few commands to the interpreter but most of the original work was done by one Ed Davis.

Code: (Select All)
'tiny basic in a subroutine
' vesion 0.1.j2823
' a tiny basic interpreter that can run in a  qb64 program
'based on code by Ed Davis  posted in a facebbok group
'
'it's crude and sloppy and not done yet but it works due to the good work of people before me.
'
'the original tiny basic implmentation this was based on used integer basic and only allowed 26 single letter variables
'altered things (poorly for now) to allow a larger number of variables and floating point numbers.
'there isn't support for string variables for now.
' valid variable names must start with a letter and may contain any mixture of alphanumeric characters  and $
'variable names are not case sensistive so Aaa and AAA woudl be the smae variable.
'it's sloppy but A100A woudl be a valid variable name
'
'eventually I'll get string variables into this and some simple graphics, there's some bits of code in here now to get that going
'but it's nowhere near done yet
'
'all output from the interperter will go to current program screen when the interpreter is called
'code will immediatley execute if typed without a line number
'line numbers from 1 to 9999 are valid

'$dynamic

  BAM: Sample "meta-programming" documentation: the "now" macro
Posted by: CharlieJV - 07-27-2023, 03:45 AM - Forum: QBJS, BAM, and Other BASICs - No Replies

Just starting to figure out how to document the meta-programming features in BAM, and I decided to pick an easy one first.

Not very many use cases for the "now" macro (scroll to the bottom of the page for the link below), but it is pretty handy for program documentation and program intro screens.

  Help installing QB64PE on KDE Neon 2023 (Linux)
Posted by: Dav - 07-27-2023, 02:34 AM - Forum: Help Me! - Replies (4)

I installed the lastest KDE Neon linux distro today, but the QB64PE setup script fails with this error.  What would be the best step to fix this?

- Dav

Code: (Select All)
Compiling and installing QB64-PE...
./setup_lnx.sh: line 111: make: command not found
./setup_lnx.sh: line 112: make: command not found
It appears that the qb64pe executable file was not created, this is usually an indication of a compile failure (You probably saw lots of error messages pop up on the screen)
Usually these are due to missing packages needed for compilation. If you're not running a distro supported by this compiler, please note you will need to install the packages listed above.
If you need help, please feel free to post on the QB64 Phoenix Edition Forums detailing what happened and what distro you are using.
Also, please tell them the exact contents of this next line:

  Vim in Linux
Posted by: Kernelpanic - 07-26-2023, 12:28 AM - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (3)

There are some here who work with Linux. My favorite editor on the command line has always been Vim (on KDE it was jedit). Today I only have WSL2 under Windows, as a hobby.

You can customize Vim for each programming language if you want. In case anyone is interested, my source code in Vim looks the same under WSL2 as it used to under SuSE, namely like this (GCC):

[Image: GCC-in-Vim-Konfiguration.jpg]

The settings in the .exrc and .vimrc look like this. They have to be filed separately in each sub-forum - that is, for each programming language.

  "I'm Having Fun."
Posted by: James D Jarvis - 07-21-2023, 03:57 AM - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (6)

The wife and I are sitting on the couch after dinner and I have my laptop in front of me working on a program cursing, swearing, and muttering as I go.

She tells me "The working day is over, time for some rest or fun"

I of course reply to her "I'm having fun."
