An old fashioned Basic interpreter for the Mac. #Chipmunk BASIC #Basic interpreter #Object oriented #Basic #Interpreter #Object
Chipmunk Basic is a terminal command-line utility designed to provide access to a BASIC programming language interpreter.
Chipmunk Basic also includes a Mac OS X Carbon window port that provides support for simple graphics with a sprite graphics engine, sound, MacinTalk speech.
Chipmunk Basic is also AppleScriptable and the built in te2cbas AppleScript allows you to run programs from the TextEdit application. A tw2cbas AppleScript is included to run programs from the TextWrangler application.
The command-line executable named "basic" can go into your /usr/bin directory ( use: sudo mv -i basic /usr/bin/basic ), or any other directory in your execution $path.
The basic.1 man file goes into your /usr/share/man/man1/ directory. Then type "man basic" to see the man file in readable form.
Note that from the Terminal or any unix shell, you can use the command "basic filename.bas" to run a Basic program, and that externally edited Basic program do not need to have or use line numbers. NOTE: Chipmunk Basic is free for educational and personal use.
