teaching an old dog new tricks

Post by iamdenteddisk »

First time back in a long while. So i want to start with hello to old friends, howdy!

Next to the topic i post about. Im now trying to learn to use "De_Re Basic!", for android.
I hope to start by converting some of my old Qb programs to use on android.
Any advice or clues from members would be awesome..

Never heard of that one. Pete @ N54 and I tried a basic for Android, but it left a lot to be desired.

Graphics is harder, especially for odd sized devices.

Looks interesting with dot commands...we would have to totally rewrite our basic code.

Let me know how it works out.
