Thank you you answer and of course for code.
I have no knowledge of C or even LINUX .
So far I could understand from your UBASIC Project, it is a BASIC to C converter.
I feel that it is a very challenging project, and it involves surely at lot of Knowledge and huge effort from yourself, and also have the fealing that it would be very difficult to get it run for everybody. I think there will be always problems, then it depends very much on how the people are writting there BASIC Programs.

I am wondering if it would not be much more easyier to write a BASIC Interpreter that would run as a Program in the HP.
Somehow your doing, more or less, something like a BASIC Interpreter.

It would be very nice and very usefull if there was a BASIC Interpreter for the HP, at least for, so that the User could write on-the-fly , a BASIC Program.

It would be interesting to know the opinion and of the need of a sBASIC (=short) for the HP Calculators from other HP users.

Once again, thank you.
Regards.

Hello Alvaro

no, my UBasic is not a BASIC to C converter.

my basic is an interpreter, and does exactly what you're asking for.

just that it's still very easy to get the calculator to crash, because my program lacks better error handling.

 UBasic works great for me because I know better, now I have several ideas to make it better and safer to use.

right now, you can write your basic program directly into the calculator and run in it, but is more comfortable typing on a regular keyboard and then move this program to the calculator with an SD memory.

and the best part is that compiling the source code UBASIC can have the same program running on your computer, either with Linux, Windows and Mac OSX, and even in a Ti-89, TI-92 and TI-Voyager calculator
