I followed a link from electro-tech-online.com and found something called BoostBASIC. It looks to fit my needs, as I can inline assemble and the code looks tight. The price when it is released will be around $70.
It is the same engine as the BoostC. Anyway, they say Boost will integrate with MPLABS. And I am looking for a BASIC that integrates. I did not figure out how to make it work inside of MPLABS and I did see a .cof files which I will research later.
What I really want though is to write in BASIC, compile and get an MPLABs compatible .ASM file with my BASIC lines above each section of ASM code. Boost might do that, the BoostC claims it does.
What I did do though, was write a Win32 program to take thier .casm file (a .lst file) with the BASIC lines in it and dropped them (commented of course) into the .ASM and it loads and work great with MPLABS.
I only have the MAIN done right now, I will add the subs and functions when I have time, but it is cool.. Finally getting close.
If anyone knows if the BoostBASIC will directly work in MPLABS, please let me know. Otherwise, I will keep adding to my program..
