pitybas
A working TI-BASIC interpreter, written in Python.
Installation
pip install pitybas
Usage
Use pb -i vt100 to run programs which need a working home screen.
If you run pb with no filename, it launches an interactive shell.
Usage: pb [options] filename
Options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-a, --ast parse, print ast, and quit
-d, --dump dump variables in stacktrace
-s, --stacktrace always stacktrace
-v, --verbose verbose output
-i IO, --io=IO select an IO system: simple (default), vt100
-x, --strict raise ERR:UNDEFINED instead of silently defaulting unset variables to 0
You can also run it as a module without installing the console script:
python -m pitybas -i vt100
Known Limitations
- Graph screen functions are not supported. Commands that draw to the TI-83/84 graph screen (e.g.
Circle,Line,DrawF) are not implemented. Programs that use them will fail or produce no output.
Development
Clone the repository and install it in editable mode with the test extras:
pip install -e .[test]
pytest
