This basic interpreter is derived from Herb Schildt's
interpreter in the book:
C: Power User's Guide
I have done extensive rewriting for compatibility, and
also ported it to UNIX. It has been tested on version 5.3 UNIX
a. it now dynamically allocates memory
for the program file.
b. broke the single source file into
multiple files.
c. termcap capability if on UNIX.
d. enhanced program file name recognition.
I also added several functions.
See "defines.h" and "*.bas" for clues to functions.
A makefile for UNIX 5.3 and MSC 5.1 are included. This
is an excellent start to write your own interpreter or
language. (Plus it is just fun to tinker with.)
I am in the process of implementing strings and arrays.
Any comments or improvements will be greatly appreciated.
