This is not true. It's trivial with pygame or equivalent SDL
bindings in other mainstream languages:
basic.py:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
import sys
import pygame
class BasicInterpreter:
def SCREEN(self, x):
self.surface = pygame.display.set_mode(
(320, 200), pygame.FULLSCREEN, 8)
def PSET(self, x, y, c):
self.surface.set_at((x, y), c)
pygame.display.flip()
if __name__ == '__main__' and len(sys.argv) > 1:
basic = BASIC()
with open(sys.argv[1]) as bas:
for line in bas:
eval("basic.%s(%s)" % tuple(x.strip() for x in line.split
(' ', 1)))
while True:
for event in pygame.event.get():
if event.type in (pygame.QUIT, pygame.KEYDOWN):
sys.exit(0)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This will execute your BASIC program.
