Hi,

I have some programs written in Amiga basic which I wish to have rewritten to use on a Macbook Pro and a PC. Can anyone help me with this?

There's no way to automate this process, somebody would have to properly port these programs into a contemporary basic dialect (or any other modern programming language).

If you're happy with just executing the existing programs in their current state, use an Emulator to run them on your Mac/PC.

If you really want to have them rewritten, we would need some more information: Size of the programs, purpose (perhaps better alternatives exist out there?), how much do they rely on the Amiga's GFX and sound chips? Perhaps you can post the sourcecode here, so we can have a look at it...

Hi.

Try Freebasic http://www.freebasic.net/

Without adjustment, of course, is nothing but the syntax is similar to

For Mac OS X, there is also QB64 http://www.qb64.net/

Freebasic doesn't support Mac OS X.

@alphagemini:

Please send a link to the sourcecode!
Maybe, Hollywood is a solution to port your code to other platforms!
