ugBASIC User Manual

This example will show how to define an user-defined procedure and the various way you can call it. You can call it by using directly its name, or by using the keywords PROC or CALL'. All the way are somewhat equivalent. ==== SOURCE CODE ==== CLS PROCEDURE hello PRINT “HEY!” END PROC PROC hello hello[] CALL hello ==== SOURCE FILE ==== * procedures_hello_03.bas ==== HOW TO COMPILE AND RUN ==== The instructions here refer to compiling the example from the command line.

Then, type this command on the command line:

 # Linux 
 ugbc.zx procedures_hello_03.bas -o example.tap
 Speccy example.tap
 
 # Windows 
 ugbc.zx.exe procedures_hello_03.bas -o example.tap
 Speccy example.tap

In order to compile and run the example, you need to have the openMsx or the BlueMSX emulator, and in particular that its executable is accessible.

Then, type this command on the command line:

 # Linux 
 ugbc.msx1 procedures_hello_03.bas -o example.rom
 openmsx -cart example.rom
 
 # Windows 
 ugbc.msx1.exe procedures_hello_03.bas -o example.rom
 openmsx -cart example.rom

 # Linux 
 ugbc.msx1 procedures_hello_03.bas -o example.rom
 bluemsx example.rom
 
 # Windows 
 ugbc.msx1.exe procedures_hello_03.bas -o example.rom
 bluemsx example.rom

In order to compile and run the example, you need to have the openMsx or the BlueMSX emulator, and in particular that its executable is accessible.

Then, type this command on the command line:

 # Linux

 # Windows 
 ugbc.coleco.exe procedures_hello_03.bas -o example.rom
 bluemsx  /machine \"COL - ColecoVision\" /rom1 example.rom

In order to compile and run the example, you need to have the BlueMSX emulator, and in particular that its executable is accessible.

Then, type this command on the command line:

 # Linux

 bluemsx /machine \"SEGA - SC-3000\" /rom1 example.rom
 
 # Windows 
 ugbc.sc3000.exe procedures_hello_03.bas -o example.rom
 bluemsx  /machine \"SEGA - SC-3000\" /rom1 example.rom

In order to compile and run the example, you need to have the BlueMSX emulator, and in particular that its executable is accessible.

Then, type this command on the command line:

 # Linux
