Would it be feasible to use your translator to compile Script BASIC into O2 code?

 Hey John. :) Probably yes, but PluriBASIC specializes in the PowerBASIC flavor of BASIC.
perhaps we can discuss this in another thread.

Brian,

I would like to retain Script BASIC's memory manager that Peter Vehas wrote (MyAlloc) and the variant style variable structure. I would also like to keep SB's variadic function(ality). The rest should be traditional BASIC with a sprinkle of Python and Perl.

I would also like to transition to the DLLC style API extension module interface rather than SB's proprietary shared object calling method.

Agreed.

Putting the cart before the horse.
