You wrote a language in QB? Wicked! What have you written for it? Interpreter? (obviously) Interface? Compiler? Could I get a copy?

Hmm well it's not fully finished yet, but it's fairly capable...
it was mainly designed so that source files are very small, all commands are 1 byte in length, no gfx commands it's all ascii.

So far a pong game, simple walkaround/battle rpg and a game where u gotta get to a piece of cheese b4 the enemy does

A cheap 'compiler' has been made, it converts the code to qb code and compiles with bc and link, but it still has a few bugs and it'll prolly be scraped as i like using the int for this language, a IDE was started but never finished, u can load/save files and a few other features altho u can't run files from it.

if you want you can add me to your msn contact list and i'll give ya a copy and a few example progs. (binaryshock@hotmail.com)

It's loosely a esoteric language (language meant to be difficult to program in, hence the 1 byte commands) i donno what it is, i just love esoteric langs. this 1 is sorta inbetween esoteric and high level.

oh and btw it's called Smurf (long story behind that).

here's a code sample... don't freak out

Code:

Cx;  Cy;
Cox; Coy;
Ci;
Cxkey;

@x:40; @y:12;

T0:2; %

T14:2;
Gx:y; P'';

{
  
   &&    
        
   {
      Kxkey;
      ?xkey!0:^;
   }

   Gx:y; P' ';

   ?xkey=75:-x;
   ?xkey=77:+x;
   ?xkey=80:+y;
   ?xkey=72:-y;
   ?xkey=1:^;

   ?x=0:+x;
   ?x=81:-x;
   ?y=0:+y;
   ?y=24:-y;

   T14:2;
   Gx:y; P'';
  
}

E

What this does is, turns the screen green and allows u to move a lil smiley face around.

Smurf is really a cool language once u understand it all, it's really easy. I plan on making some large scale project in it... (obviously not as large scale as qb project could be, but large for smurf)
