Also I just realized something:

Z80 -- Axe-Language Projects

Noticing "z80" had to be specified for Axe, does it mean there is an Axe port for another calc model currently in the works and staff is holding it secret in the staff forum??

[Stefan Bauwens]

Lol. Actually there is. But it's named Newprog.

[DJ Omnimaga]

Well I really meant an Axe port/exactly similar language (syntax-wise too). I asked since in the past there were discussions about a PRIZM version of Axe.

Does the prizm use tokens, or does it edit BASIC programs like the 86 did? I can see syntax-similarity problems if it's token based.

[aeTIos]

How did the 86 edit programs then?

It uses tokens.

The language would definitively be different, such as Locate instead of Output, but I meant the idea/concept.

[willrandship]

Actually, I wonder how much of the syntax would have to change, especially if the Prizm supports some method of changing the currently displayed tokens....that way it could change to the standard command set.

Does the PRIZM and FX-9860GII process tokens the same way? so we could have axe on FX?

[DJ Omnimaga]

Considering both OSes look similar (except the color), I wouldn't be surprised if they were processed the same way on both, especially now that both calcs use the same processor.
