Silly question, but has anyone written a Qbasic to Blitzmax conversion routine?

]:D

Maybe even more silly question: Since Blitzmax is so close to C anyway, has anyone written a C to blitzmax conversion routine?

}:D

Yes, there is no conversion routine.

You don't need to convert C to BlitzMax, since BlitzMax can use C code directly.

Where do I come up with these questions? I must have been asleep... or drunk! ha ha

Actually, yes. I have a QB to B+ and a QB to BM converter that I downloaded from one of the now dead community sites years ago. You might want to try and Google for them.

That's bizarre. I wrote a QB>BLITZ (including DQB lib) converter yonks back. No idea where it got to now mind.

well, it isnt, but it can use stuff written in C.

It should be quite easy to write one to convert qb to bm though.
