Positron BASIC Community

It indeed refuses to install on Windows 7 (that's the laptop I always use to write my Positron programs—offline).
It says "Missing api-ms-win-core-path-l1-1-0.dll".
I need to find a way to fix that first.

Hi Frizie, it won't run on Win7.  I'll look at doing a simple C cmd line version.  I can compile that to run in 95 +

Many thanks Jon.

If size is the problem, I can place it on my google drive, and put a permanent link to the files on the forum.

I still have approx 10GB spare on the google drive.

Best regards
Les

I'm also happy to host files on my Easy-Driver site.

Cool beans, chaps, that will save me a load of work.  I am now halfway through building the C command-line version; this should work from Win95 to Win11 and can be built with an open-source compiler for other OS too.  It should be finished in a day or so and tested. 

I am only doing the 18F for now, and it should be easy enough to port to 16F and DSPic.  Also, not sure it's worth it on the 16F enhanced devices.


I will produce HTML help files as these are much easier to host and read.

Hi Jon,
You have gone above and beyond, I was just looking for a guide to how to be able to do them for myself. Or is that what the HTML files are for?

Regards,
Bob

Hi Bob

I am working on the detailed guide for both the PC and the PIC, but you don't need to for the above devices, as I have them all done for the Amicus and Johns 18F dev board.

Hi Jon,

your Amicus boards are being shipped today.

John

Cheers John

Im ready for them
