I am wondering if it is possible to make a TI-basic program become an asm without any real work on my part (a converter)...If there is a way, can someone please give me a link to it?

I have heard that their is a converter at ticalc.org under windows utilities, but it probably doesn't work.
It is probably going to take some work on your part to convert the program manually, or write a basic compiler (hint: Idea for anybody who can do this!).

I have been there, and it doesnt work....the basic2assembler...I can only get it to the 5th step and the stupid thing wont go any farther...If someone can help me with this, i would appreciate it....The info doesnt help, and the websites in the readme have nothing to do with the program....

i've had the exact same problem about a year ago, i visited the author's website, but had no luck finding help, or his email, maybe if you went to ticalc.org, and looked up his author data you'll find his address, if you do manage to get past it, let me know how

Yeah, I knew it wouldn't work.

yep, untill someone decides to go low-tech, and be like the fliintstones and have a program that's really a person that goes over the BASIC program and then converts it into Asm, we'll never have a WORKING BASIC2Asm converter

It would be to difficult, because basic commands don't have an exact assembly equivalent!

A converter is stupid. You guys should learn a real language! ;D

That is what I was getting at. It would be cool to write a basic compiler though, just think, it would spark new life into basic programming.

well, if someone mastered BASIC, Asm, and C by the time they were 10, and they spent their whole life working on it, there's a small chance that we'll get a basic compiler

you have a very good point, because it would take forever to wright one, and it probably wouldn't be something that would fit on a calculator to compile programs just before they are ran.

yeah, you'd need like a team of at least 50 people just to make it so they could come up with a way to overcome the problems

You would need to spend a lot of money to hire a team of 50 people. Most, would probably want to be paid.

obviously, which is why we'll never see it in our lifetime, and by the time we die, ti will DEFINETLY come out with something to replace the 83 series

If we die young. I plan to live longer than the few months it will take them to release their next calculator. Z80 might be dead thoug I think they should make an extremly fast Z80 for the next generation calcs. They will probably be 68K though, and soon be programed in C, a good think considering the complexity of 68K asm.
