Happy New Year to you too!
You guys would really be willing to take a look at over 2500 lines of code for me??
I started the conversion and am taking notes for you guys since you liked the idea. However, a couple of questions came up.
First, where are READ/DATA commands used to add data into the code and then read them into variables? My program makes extensive use of them to position buttons and gadgets on the screen. I suppose I can come up with a workaround using an external data file, or parsing large strings of numbers. But I don't want to have more than one final file, and parsing that much data can be a pain. Aldweb, why weren't these commands included?
Also, speaking of strings of numbers, in iziBasic bitmaps can be placed directly in the code as strings of numbers and then drawn on the screen in this fashion:
bbt$(0)="3FC0387FE07C80E07C3E50D67F11FFFFE1FF0020D6F3A010"
bbt$(1)="B6D03804107C0010481C30503E20887F40840840849CC084"
bbt$(2)="DD80847F21C83E732888EF90C1CFD0E39FE07F3FE03E7FC0"
dr aw x,y,24,24,100,bbt$(0)
I would like to continue to use these same bitmap graphics, how do I go about using their raw numbers to do the same thing with iziBasic?
Hmmmm, I am starting to think maybe I should post this big program here since the more I get into this conversion the questions are gonna pop up I think, I hope you guys are patient with me!
