another forum area for other platforms than zx-spectrum

[nitrofurano]

anyway, i added some more machines there (even Uzebox! ) - i think there are not so many, since we never know on which ones this project may get more help or available documentation - anyway, there are some really forgotten and interesting hardware (like GEM1000) could have a new life from a project like this!

Or like LASER 210 or ZX81...
I added Enterprise and some other comuters some hours ago (Just still repairing my Amiga 1200 turbo card).
In the Help section of BorIDE I reworked already added help pages to display for which plattform the comands are available for (ATM only Sinclair Spectrum).
E.g.
MODE: Command available for SAM Coupé, Amstrad CPC, C64, QL, Atari XL/XE, TI99/4a, Enterprise

Or do you think, better to change it to Plattform where it will be not available?
MODE: Command not aviable on ZX Spectrum

i think LASER 210 is a kind of simplified CoCo2/Dragon32? (i think Radio Shack also released this simplified version, named '150'-something.. )

oops, Laser 210 is a z80! :O

[nitrofurano]

btw, i think Laser 210 has the same video processor as CoCo2 and GEM-1000 - but they are all different hardware

Boriel, one issue with calling the compiler bbc...is there's a certain broadcasting corporation that might object to using the name! You know....<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://bbc.co.uk">http://bbc.co.uk</a><!-- m -->

britlion, be welcome suggesting names as well!

[LCD]

Me too?
BorBAS Pro, Multi Architecture Advanced BASIC Compiler, BasFusion, AllMachine BASIC Compiler, RetroBAS Compiler, XCompiler (X=Cross).
By the way, just found C64 Memory map:

May be important.

Hahahah! Nice! I like this character!
But, I'm a bit reluctant to use Boriel in the acronym... :oops: (shy)

[slenkar]

dont be shy :_)

[nitrofurano]

Boriel, you deserve it! your cross-compiler is just awesome! \o/ - btw, i understand it, Linus Torvalds is exactly the same about Linux!
And from LCD, his suggestions are good as well, like AMBC (All-Machine Basic Compiler), or even AHBC (All-Hardware Basic Compiler)

Btw, i tried to start something for Uzebox (that raising and minimalistic minimal hardware, where i think is important this cross-compiler be present)

(i named that BBCC temporarily, but of course this can be changed as soon as we can have the definitive name)

Slenkar, 'boba' means silly, foolish (female) in portuguese, galician and castellano... :/ (i think Boriel can confirm about castellano) - i'm not sure about catalan
