Current alfa development source is available from http://www.internetfun.net/bascc Legal Stuff ----------- The core BASCC package is Public Domain, but small portions of this package are subject to various copyright conditions. Although the core BASCC package is Public Domain, mention of BASCC in the documentation of packages linked with it is greatly appreciated. Ports ----- BASCC is written in ANSI c++ and produces GNU ANSI c++ code. (Must be compiled GNU c++) BASCC can be compiled on DJGPP and unix (now tested with linux) versions that support curses and allegro graphics libraries. DJGPP requires PDCURSES 2.4 Maintainer ---------- The BASCC package is written and maintained currently by Damon Hogan damon AT internetfun DOT net Development Status ------------------ BASCC's development status is about 21% of the core code completed. during this development phase expect the code to be a little buggy. However, groups of functions that work together are being completed together so that initially simple BASIC programs can be written and converted. A list of example code is in bascc.txt. And an actual basic program that can be converted to c++ is bob.b. FILES ------------------- bob.b A basic program that can be converted perfectly. bob.c Converted version of bob.b. bob.exe Compiled version of bob.c. BILL.txt a file needed by bob.exe (Part of the bob.b program) BASCC.EXE A precompiled DJGPP binary. bascc.c Complete portable source code. Requires Allegro and curses/ PDCurses libraries. Pardon my style I like to keep it simple and in one piece. bascc.txt Some notes about BASCC bb.bat uses bascc with one parameter filename prefix for a .b file and produces a .c file. Example: bb bob cc.bat uses gcc with one parameter filename prefix for a .c file and produces a .exe file linking included. Example: cc bob gg.bat uses gpp with one parameter filename prefix for a .c file and produces a .exe file linking included. Example: gg bascc README this file.
