Yuzu BASIC
- An interpreter for custom BASIC-like language with dynamic typing.
- Has OpenGL integrated directly as an interface for drawing graphics.
- Language features common constructs such as IF/ELSE/ENDIF, FOR/NEXT, WHILE/WEND, CONTINUE, BREAK, DO/LOOP.
- Language supports global functions which can return values and can be called recursively, and global multi-dimensional arrays of values.
- Whole interpreter runs as a resumable state which 'yields' at certain points to prevent lockup and always allow GUI interaction.
- Features syntax highlighting based on the interpreter's own tokenizer.
- Uses wxWidgets to provide a GUI in which the program runs concurrently while the user is editing code.
- Yuzu is a citrus fruit.
Download - Includes C++ sourcecode, GNU makefile for building on Linux or Windows using MSYS, and example programs.
