Umm... You are aware you cannot compile stuff made in Visual Basic on DC, aren't you?
Not only are there no compilers, it would be impossible to implant a visual programming language on DC without GUI code already made.
You can only compile C/C++/SH4ASM stuff on DC, and you need linux, or a Linux emulator (cygwin) with the GCC compiler to do so. Just thought I'd point that out.

Subject: Re: [vmu] On-DC VMUscript compiler But... I'd be glad to help you out. I've got a couple non-DC projects that I'm working on, but those are just for fun. Believe it or not, I'm almost finished writing a chess program written in (get ready) Visual Basic!!!! So far it plays pretty well!!! (It can beat me) Back on topic, about the DC port.... I just got an idea. DCEmu ported a copy of Linux for the DC. If we could port the code to work with Linux, it would work on the DC!!! Don't worry about how much space a program will use!!!! I've tested random things for how much space they will take up, and I don't think programs take up that much space...... The average size of a vmuscript program AFTER COMPILATION is 6 blocks. I don't know how big the source code is, but I wrote a program to calculate VMU sizes so I can just use that. I'm not sure if I made that (VMU.EXE) available with the general vmu script package, but if I didn't I can post it in the group files if you need it. If you think the programs will take up too much space, it wouldn't be too hard to write a simple program to save the files in 6bit or 5bit format since they're only text anyway (between 3/4 to 5/8 of original filesize). --- Miles Raymond <reukiodo@...> wrote: > I just got Linux set up (I hear that it's easier) on > another PC that I can SSH into and do my > development there. > > Once I get KOS (CVS) set up, I'll try to get this > project on the road.
