Very fun! I had created a version of Star Trek to run on a 4K TRS-80 with Level II BASIC back in the stone age. In order to make it fit, I had to keep cutting bits out, and I eventually called it "RandoTrek" because there was so little storage available I had to randomly generate each sector on demand. (I still remember "3284 bytes free" as the amount of RAM I had until I could afford the 16K upgrade.) Anyway, I just wanted to mention that I had to change the chomp statement to s/\r?\n// because the line endings on the BASIC program were CR+LF and cygwin perl was expecting LF. That caused the interpreter to fail when trying to branch to line "1200\r". I've not played the game yet, as I'm at work now, but at least that let me get to the first COMMAND prompt. I'll likely give it a go on my lunch break. ;^) ...roboticus When your only tool is a hammer, all problems look like your thumb. In reply to Re: A BASIC interpreter to run StarTrek
