Small Visual Basic Tutorial, Level 2, Variables ...

This introduction offers an overview of Small Basic and this book series. It is not meant for kids under the age of 13, not to be board or feel distracted. Teachers, parents and beginners of higher ages may read it to realize what this series is about, where sVB came from and what it can do. This can allow them to provide some answers to questions that may be asked by curious kids. (Mohammad Handy)

Wrap030-ATX Does Something Useful, Runs BASIC

This is it. This is was my goal, where I was hoping to be in time for VCF-Southwest at the end of this month — my Wrap030-ATX project is running the TSMON monitor from ROM; the monitor is loading BASIC from ROM into RAM; and BASIC is running programs.

I did run into a few problems getting BASIC running because of all the modifications I've made to it over the years for my 68000 project and the earlier iterations of the Wrap030 project (most problematic being my attempt to modify it to use the FPU).

So I went back and grabbed a fresh copy of the source to work from. I converted the syntax from VASM to GNU AS, swapped out the M6850 ACIA UART routines for new ones using the 16c550 UART, and updated the addresses in the program and my linker script for the Wrap030-ATX memory map. It took a few tries to get it running, but I think the results really speak for themselves.

Now that I've met my minimum goal ahead of VCFSW, everything else is extra. I do want to see if I can get the FPU and my video generator working.

this is so cool, they even linked where you can download these books from the 80s

Got bored, decided to start working on programming a quite rudimentary text based roguelike in Commodore BASIC 2.0 like it's 1983, working pretty much purely off of text, so if I ever finish this project, and somehow still have motivation, it'd theoretically be pretty easy to port to anything else running a variant of Microsoft basic.

Only problem is I'm not a programmer or an artist, or a musician for that matter, so if this little project ever does get finished don't expect anything mind-blowing, this is purely a passion project, but I'd love to do a physical release on cassette one day, again, assuming I get it finished. I kept the game to a specific scope to maximise the chance of it actually getting finished and to try and avoid feature creep.

At first, I was going to say...

But that's not really accurate. More like...

But i guess that's not really accurate, either. Really, it was...

(Edit: I guess now that I think about it, MacOS 1.0 came out before GEOS, so those two should be swapped. The Commodore 64 originally came out before the first Macintosh computer, though)

I came across some early CG I had made while going through my late mother’s things. Coded in BASIC. Output on a Tektronix 4051 while I was a freshman at college. Chairs were easy to model because rectangular solids were easy, and I had to enter all vertex coordinates by hand. I simulated a #fisheye lens. Pure #wireframe. No hidden surface removal. I found an ad that shows what the computer looked like.
