I can't think of any BASIC programs I want to translate, but this looks kind of interesting :

Now if they only had a gnu C to Standard C ... :P

I thought the best way to prepare an existing GNU C program for use with a "real" C compiler was to run this command on the development folder first:

Code: Select all

rm -rf *.c

This step fixes most of the GCCisms that are present in the source code. :lol:

The only thing I ever used Basic for was to fill IBM PC screens with scrolling different colored background and foreground text displays. I'd load the program onto co-workers PCs after they went home for the day and they'd show up the next morning and freak out about what their computer was doing. This would have been in the 80s of course. Yeah, I know, I'm one of those old dudes. :lol:

Anyway, pretty sure I don't need to do that again in C... :mrgreen:
