Re: Basic compiler

Hello all,

I have joined this group in hopes to get back up to speed as I picked
up a couple of apple IIes to use as embedded controllers.  Does anyone
know where I can get a copy with manual of a BASIC compiler that will
produce executable code?

Just out of curiosity, is your program so big and so slow that
you need to compile it, as opposed to just running it in Applesoft?

If you have a few routines that need machine language speed, they
can be easily crafted in an assembler and called from BASIC.

Unlike most 8-bit microcontrollers today, the 6502 has *very* few
*real* compilers (that compile to machine language).
