Creating .8xp programs (Axe) in Java

(1/3) > >>

pimathbrainiac:
Does anybody know how to do this?

I am trying to make a program that will convert some stuffs to an Axe program, but I don't know how to create .8xp programs in Java.

Streetwalrus:
You should write a tokenizer, then look at DEVPAC8x to make a binary file into an 8xp.

pimathbrainiac:
tokenizer? I don't know what that is...

Streetwalrus:
Basically a text parser that converts your program into tokens (every element in the BASIC editor is 1 or 2 bytes instead of a string, for example Disp is a token).

pimathbrainiac:
Gotcha!

Java's string manipulation is horrible, but I'll try my best.

* pimathbrainiac wishes he knew perl
