Subject: [Possibly OT] Brandy BBC BASIC with graphics on Linux
Hi,
Sorry if this is off-topic, best place I could think of about work on a
BBC BASIC port.
I've been playing with the code for Brandy BBC BASIC 1.0.19, and have
got it to the stage where it'll run the "graphdemo" example provided in
its examples directory. Like the tekdemo1 and tekdemo2, the graphics are
implemented using the Tektronix emulation supplied in Linux's xterm. As
such it's quite limited, the various PLOT codes aren't supported (nor
are its VDU equivalents), but DRAW [BY], MOVE [BY], CIRCLE and RECTANGLE
all work, as do VDU5, VDU4 and CLG. Unlike the standard build,
unsupported commands are ignored instead of raising an error.
It's here: http://www.eridani.co.uk/misc/brandy-1.0.19xterm.tar.gz
