Re: Structured to numbered BASIC convertor?

[Gary Gray <vengefultacos@gmail.com>]

I haven't played with it yet, but there is Virtual Basic, a Python 
script that translates a more-structured version of basic into 
Applesoft. The main issue I have with it is that it flags labels using 
the pound sign (British currency, not #), which isn't exactly easy to 
generate on a US keyboard... I think it would be fairly easy to change 
the script to use something like a tilde (~), which I think Applesoft 
doesn't use.

The script is available at http://virtualbasic.org/
