Retro Programming
Posted: Sun Feb 09, 2025 3:33 pm
I don't know if other people are interested in this at the moment, but I would like to do some retro programming, to be precise, Amiga and C64, as I had these computers when I was young.
C64 with Purebasic would of course be great too (perhaps a future feature?
Or maybe a tool? Anyone interested?), but at the moment I'm interested in the Amiga.
On the Amiga emulator itself with the ancient IDE, however, it's not particularly convenient. Can't we integrate the old Amiga version of PB into the new PB version like a cross compiler in order to do retro programming with the new Windows/Linux IDE?
I think that would be great. By the way, then the ASM backend wouldn't be "dead" as in the interview, as I assume that the Amiga code would be integrated into the ASM backend
Who else is in favor of this and enjoys retro programming?
