Hello, I'm creating a DOS based menu program for MESS (I don't like any of the others out there) and I am writing it in Qbasic 7.1 (C was to much trouble) then...
Hi all, Found this def for qbasic's RUN command: RUN {line number | file$ } Where line number is a line in the current program file$ is a file name, source...
I know that this might seem like sacrilege to some but has anyone else thought of/hope for a new windows based compiler that supports QB? I have been looking...
Well I suppose it is possible. But understand that without understanding exactly how QB does everything that it does there would be little point. I could...
I think you have me wrong. I mean to write a compiler or interpreter that would use the QB language. QB itself would NOT be used. It would be its own ...
It was, becasue VB 1 was a dos GUI creator. It didn't make real windows applications. Did it? No, from what I've seen it didn't. And I know exactly what you...
Actually, I've been thinking about a new QB compiler myself. The BC.EXE that comes with 4.5 is *horribly* inefficient, for example: value& = value& + 1 ...
I don't know if I could do it all by myself. :-) I was just tossing out the idea to see if I was the only person thinking about it. I understand the legal...
It's not a bad thought, not bad at all. My main concern is keeping a group long enough to get the project done. More than one project such as this done over...
Here's my problem--I teach children with a variety of problems. Some of my autistic children have extreme articulation problems. For example, this kid that...
Look at Microsoft's Speech SDK 5 (not the newer server stuff). It has tools for things like this as well as an interface with VB. I don't think you'd be able...
Hello, fellow qbasic member. This company really helped me out. I almost lost my home. I am self employed and I was able to refinance. The best interest rates...
I've started the "QuickerBasic" project on sourceforge. The sourceforge site can be accessed on: http://sourceforge.net/projects/qkrbasic/ but there's nothing...
Hi, I would like to known when the print key has been pressed by the program user. I can detect when number and letter keys have been pressed, but haven't been...
... The PRNTSCRN and other keys such as the "Fn" and ARROWs return a 2 byte code. I trap the LEFT, RIGHT, Up & DOWN arrows with: a$=INKEY$ if a$ <> "" then...
This won't work in qbasic, at least in Windows 2000. (IIRC) Windows traps the printscreen key and does not pass it to the dos box. From experimentation, using...
Hi, I have a computer I am using that has DOS 6.22 As you know, the Print Screen key works. If you would like me to test any code, I have the time and...
I was really far into debt. Like Most I was in Financial dispair. I could not seem to get ahead no matter how hard I tried. Untill I found this place. ...
Unfourtunately, these things are a fact of all public non-moderated yahoo groups. Every group I've joined recieves these. If you think about it, it's a good...
Hi Guys! Thanks for everyone's help thus far. The program I am working on is just about finished but I am having what is, hopefully, a minor problem. The...
Hi Michael (and others). I had to combine your suggestion with a little bit of thinking on my own. The Line Input by itself didn't seem to solve the problem as...
... That's exactly how I do it too (but I don't use line numbers unless I need to, say, for a label). ... If the source file is a plain text file, which I...
I put up a new page for some of my smaller adventures below: http://www.geocities.com/dunric/dforest.html All of these are 100% compatible with QBASIC (with...
Just to show that I haven't canned the project already, I decided to release part of the project (the scratch interpreter) which I've been working on. It is...
It took me exactly 8 hours and 40 minutes to write yet another adventure game: The Quest for Waitomo Cave (Version 1.01) By Paul Panks (dunric@...) ...
