Nice that you ask, I think I know how you can do that, but never got to
writing it. The nice thing about strings and programs is that the data part
is in the same format:
.dw sizebytes
.db tokendata[,..]
So you just need to create a 0 bytes long program. Look up the
string-pointer in the VAT. Then exchange the two sizebyte-pointers and
delete the string.
If you want me to write some code, just ask, but it might take a while.
What kind of syntax do you want?
:prgmS2P:(Str1,Str2) -- Where Str2 holds the program name
Or plain old:
:"HELLO"->Str2 -- program name
:"Str1"
:send(9prgmS2P -- Or just :prgmS2P
Maybe using the first 8 chars of your string (the would-be-program-file)
for the name? Anything else?
You are going to try to port vertigo (programming language for the Ti-85)
to the Ti83(+)?
