Martian Develops SourceCoder; Conquers BASIClings
Posted by Michael on 6 November 2005, 23:20 GMT

Kerm Martian has created a new web service called SourceCoder. On the SourceCoder page, you can select a *.83p or *.8xp TI-83/83+/84+ BASIC program and upload it. SourceCoder then shows you the source code in human readable format. There are additional options for HTML or phpBBCode/InvisionBBCode, ostensibly to aid in collaborative BASIC debugging discussions. It also accepts *.8xi files (Pic0-Pic9 picture variables) and converts them to GIF and ASCII art.

The site is already slow, so please be patient with SourceCoder.

Coolest idea ever - who wants to transfer a program to their computer and use the clumsy TI-Graphlink to view the source?

Complete! 9665 tokens rendered in 0.088713 seconds. I really don't think you have to be THAT patient with it. Seems fast to me :) Of course now with the strain on the bandwidth from everyone using it, I guess we should expect some lag.

... plus this is under _current_ development.

Great job, Kerm.

Next up... 84+ program support... right?

I meant actually parsing the 84+-specific tokens.

That would be quite easy. You mean the time ones, etc? I just need to find out what they are.

A really good idea: it would be even cooler if we can then edit that code, and then reconvert it into .8xp files. That would save me sooo much time! Because TI-Graphlink has decided to stop working on my computer, I can't work BASIC on my computer anymore.

Ya, that would be a really cool feature. It wouldn't be that hard to do, just have a program running on the server that recompiles the program from the source. If only I still had a working TI-83+, im all 89 right now.

I'm considering how this might work, it would have to tokenize clientside, otherwise it would be impossible to code.

Why not have a completely web-based BASIC development system?

That's what I'm thinking of, if I can get it to work.

What kind of advantage would that have?

Um, being able to edit and work on your TI-BASIC projects from anywhere without a calculator?

Thank you very much all. Note to those interested, I have added support for:

:: Lists
:: Complex Lists
:: Real vars
:: Complex vars
:: Strings

Coming soon:
:: Matrices

Great job Kerm. This is a great program that is really useful. My favorite feature is its ability to turn .8xi pictures into rows of hex code that z80 assembly programmers can use.

I agree. This was a great idea! Now I can easily post source code from my basic programs, or see if a newly added basic program is any good. The image viewer is nice too. Thanks.

Congrats, Kerm. They didn't mention it in the news article, but is it true you're also working on .8xl format?

This is fun! It's intresting to see how short some programs really are...and how long others are. I also discovered a prgmAAAAAAAF that I can't make heads or tails of, but it appears to be a numToStr in BASIC. See attacted URL. Ignore horrible spelling.
