Re: Roll a Die

Looking forward to see what you do. Let me know if you have any questions. I'll always do my best to provide support. This is all journey in progress. I really have no clue what I am doing half the time (or more).

Re: Roll a Die

Good example of how to use Net Basic with SVG. Just wondering have you tried the program encoded URL feature yet? It allows you to store your whole program in a url as encoded text in a GET variable. Basically when you press run, you get two links. One HTTPS and one HTTP for older browsers. The link...

Commando Basic update in progress

While working on a small update to add the EXP function, found a big inconsistency in the tokens. While fixing that, I found a major bug in the whitespace handling.. probably a tryo or missed something. Only have an hour to work on the computer per day right now. Will look more into this later as I ...

Craft Basic version 1.7.1 released

This is a small update, so I decided this will be v1.7.1 and not v1.8. Did some cleaning up of the examples. Added more examples ported from other languages. Added a new function EXP() for returning exponential value. Documentation has been updated a bit. New examples include: rocket.bas​ bombardmen...

Re: Tomorrow’s World!

AI is changing the game for creativity. How long before it will be able to make improvements to programming languages?

I wonder if it's possible to use this ai to design circuits. Imagine drawing a scientific calculator or even a "simple" 8 bit adding machine.

Re: Resize Window

Hello, Gemino. Thank you for the quick and detailed response. I am using both Windows 10 Home and Windows 11 Home operating systems. Both have the same discrepancy count concerning the Resize Window issue. As you say, the quick and easy fix for programmers using Windows 10 and 11 would be to just a...

Re: Resize Window

It's more of a limitation than a bug. I'm not exactly sure how to describe it. That's why it's not documented yet. What OS are you running it on? Windows 95, xp (classic vs xp theme), 10, etc. They all display windows differently. The title bar and the border pixels vary. I have no clue how to detec...

Heathkit Model ET-3400

IMG_20231214_133006.jpg At the Goodwill thrift store last week, I picked up a Heathkit Model ET-3400 for $24.50! It was sitting high up on the top shelf barely visible. I could see the blue case and immediately pulled it down at the very least expecting some vintage calculator... to my surprise, it...

Re: Express BASIC - an interpreter in C

I figured out how to remove the bind pmode13b DPMI server with eb.exe using exe2coff and copy. Now Express BASIC DOS and 9x Edition doesn't require a DPMI TSR. It's just one exe with a readme, source, and examples. Still looking into implementing INP() and OUT. Also need to attempt porting to Linux....
