B Simple(reads like "Be Simple") is B-inspired programming language(it isn't C or B, or dialect of one of them, it's B-like language and compiler). It's general purpose typeless(everything is machine words) compiled language.
Language tries be not verbose and minimalistic but it should work fine for system software and many kinds of games.
Main target was make simple language with simple compiler that will produce code for eZ80(I think it can be retargeted to another CPUs without any issues).
Current code generator outputs assembly listing that can be built with agon-ez80-assembler which available both for PC(windows, linux and mac) and native Agon.
Currently, we have Learn B Simple in Y minutes page that tries cover almost all language and simple reference manual.
- Grab latest version from RELEASES page
- Extract archive to root of SD card
- Libraries will be in
/BSimple/libdirectory, examples in/BSimple/examples
- For building single source file call
bsc <filename>it will produce file with same name but.sextension - Build binary using ez80asm
For example:
cd /BSimple/examples
bsc console
ez80asm console.s
console
For building source file call bs <filename> - it will build concatenated sources into single file, call bsc compiler and ez80asm assembler - so you'll can get single binary just in one call
For example:
bs console
console
- Clone repository
- Build entire project using root Makefile
It should install binary in your ~/bin(or correct Makefile.cross-config file with your output path)
Compiler can be built with almost any standard C compiler(for native Agon version I'm using agondev).
- No priority in calculations
- Parenthesis not supported in expressions
- Need make optimiser(peephole?!)
- Stack allocated vars limited for 40 words(120 bytes) per function call(cause index register usage)
