Edit Qbasic Interpreter with Hex editor?

Post by Sinuvoid »

Can I do that and lets say look for PRINT and change it to WRITE? Or cahnge its backround color to lets say white? All this with a hex editor?

Probably, but why would you change PRINT to WRITE? Both are already reserved keywords. You'd be better off with the sourcecode anyways.

The QBASIC source code. I'm not exactly sure where I got it from, but I have it on my hard drive. I could package it up for you if you can't find it online. Dunno how to build it though; haven't really spent much time looking into that aspect.

Again though, I'm not sure how to build it; you'll have to figure this out on your own.
