UNIXcoffee928 Posted June 30, 2016 Author Share Posted June 30, 2016 Yes, I miss such a program for A8 (with Turbo-Basic XL compatibility). Yeah, the last five screenshots of this development suite really make this an unusually thorough package for software development. It would be very cool to have a work-a-like development suite on the Atari. You're right, It would be a great feature if it could be user-selectable & extendable with not only ATARI BASIC, but Turbo-Basic XL, and all of the other major variants of ATARI BASIC and Atari Assemblers, so you never needed to leave the development environment. It looks like the perfect framework for such a "Swiss-Army-Knife" approach. It would be nice to implement this in a cross-platform language, such as TCL/TK, that way it would work identically, right out of the box for Windows, Mac, & Linux with no porting & no missing features.

Mclaneinc Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 You could try a chat with the dev incase it could be done via a plugin system etc, a lot of the C64 guys like what is on the Atari and as its a fellow 6502 structure its should not be overly hard to bolt on..

flashjazzcat Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 This resembles to some extent what we already have in WUDSN IDE coupled with source level debugging in Altirra. And WUDSN is platform agnostic (since it runs in Eclipse, which runs in Java), and Altirra runs under WINE. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo-Rio Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 I've done a lot of good dev work in BASIC on the C64 with this tool. For doing Atari type-ins, I can just do my work in notepad and then cut-paste into the emulator (although I have to wait for Altirra to finish typing without any errors) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mclaneinc Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Hold F1 down to set Altirra to max speed...Makes short work of those type in's and not had an error any time I have used F1.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
