> I'm always happy to see projects like this and OHRRPGCE where people did something useful with the language. Also still active after 29 years in development :) and even still looks much the same as its MS-DOS days.... so decades of work left to do. Recently ported to modern consoles (for Fighto Fantasy & Axe Cop RPG)! I hope it didn't take too long for you to discover the wonder of GOSUB -- simulating it with GOTO and IF is a pain! GOSUB is just a single x86 'call' instruction and RETURN a single 'ret' instruction. So simple; a taste of assembly programming without stack frames. I even reimplemented GOSUB/RETURN as macros with assembly in FreeBASIC that way (you could just push to the stack). And putting all your code in a single scope, no locals/globals/arguments, makes coding more "fun". |
