Hi,

Okay, this is probably a silly one, but I'd love to find a cross
compiler for some flavor of BASIC that targets the Apple II. Does such a
thing exist?

Thanks,

Jayson

Hi,

This might look promising, except that I'm blind and use an Echo II with
the Textalker software. I'm more interested in DOS 3.3 than ProDOS, and
when I do a BRUN ZBASIC it loads, then nothing happens. I assume
something's happening on the screen, but Textalker either isn't seeing
it or it's being disabled. Resetting and doing a PR#0 does get Textalker
back in action at an Applesoft prompt. If Z-Basic is anything other than
a text-based program, I probably won't be able to use it.

I ran ZBasic 3.0 from here:

https://archive.org/details/ZBasic_3.0_1985-Zedcor_Inc.

and nothing happens.

I refresh the web page, and click "Click to Begin" again,
but this time I press Ctrl+c while booting,
when the "]" prompt appears,
to BREAK out of the HELLO program, then type:

MON C,I,O
RUN

The following DOS 3.3 commands appear:

BRUN ZBASIC
BLOAD By,A$D000
BLOAD Version 3.0
BLOAD Reserved

The screen looks like it switches to 80-column mode, and goes blank,
and again, nothing happens.

Hello,
Find this 2MG Archive Disk in my Apple II SoftWare Repository.
This is a Prodos & Dos version of Zbasic.
https://www.facebook.com/groups/a2france/posts/4552884181484068
Hope this one could be usable for you :-)
Best regards from France.
Philippe

Okay, it's starting to look like ZBasic won't be usable by me at least
under DOS 3.3. That 2MG image did work as far as it gets, in that I am
able to issue ZBasic commands and hear disk activity, but apparently it
loads stuff onto the language card, thus clobbering the Textalker
software I need. If only I had a way to grab the contents of the text
screen as emulated by MAME, or again, a text-based IIe emulator. The old
A2 emulator I finally got working emulates only an Apple II+ with no
80-column support so is presumably of no use to me in this situation.
