SmileBASIC 3 is out; first impressions
New editor is fantastic! Search and replace, highlighting, copy & paste, in-editor help, and auto-edit on your line in-error. This is actually a viable way to edit something in portable fashion.
- byron_fast 11y agoLearn about it at http://smilebasic.com/ http://smilebasic.com/ I'm using it on the New 3DS.
- strangecasts 11y agoAre there tools to import/export programs to PC? Typing programs in with the stylus seems like it'd get tedious pretty quick.
- byron_fast 11y agoIt has web sharing now, but I think that's 3DS to 3DS only. Not practical to use an SD card because the New 3DS makes that difficult. What's weird is I've noticed that it isn't nearly as tedious as I would expect. I find programming to be slow anyway; I don't really type that often but with code completion for every keyword it's not actually terrible.
- strangecasts 11y agoAh. Code completion would help, I suppose. Do you still have the option to output to QR codes? Sadly, I live in PAL-land, so I can't pick it up for a while yet :(
- S4M 11y agoIt looks like a really nice tool to get teenagers or kids started in programming.
- byron_fast 11y agoAnd they just announced that it will come out on Wii U, and so you can use a keyboard for coding: http://smileboom.com/press/20151017petitcom_en/ http://smileboom.com/press/20151017petitcom_en/
