ZxList 6, P file to BASIC conversion app

[David G]

Guess i will share it now. It's still a bit buggy, but even so it so much more capable than 6.4

P file to BASIC/ASM app
ZX Lister 6.5 BETA For 32/64-bit Windows
download posted to first page
I have been using it on Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 7, Windows XP

Anyone have any tips on setting up a Github share for this?


6.5 changes:
* Changed the UI from archaic Windows 3.1 style to something more in line with the current millenium
* Adjust disassembly buffer to avoid "too big" message
* Add menu item "Disable Autorun"
* listing now marks AUTORUN programs
* added DFILE listing
* Improved variable display
* Implement VARS listing for ZX-IDE use

Bugs (almost all with the machine code/assembly options) Plain BASIC listings are fine
* UI is squirrelly. The ZX-IDE check-button is not properly synced with the options check-boxes
* REM machine code disassembly sometimes create two lines
* On resizing the window (restore/maximize) the window goes blank. Click again to display properly

I don't think it is a redraw bug ... it's fine with resizing via dragging the window borders, only problematic with Maximize/Minimize

It is written in C and Win32 so who can say?

Hi,

The Beat and X64 version work great in WINE on my Linux Mint X64 Computer

Glad to hear the Beta version works on Linux via WINE. Been thinking about a new laptop like that Dev One that Ars reviewed this summer

New version supports listing of Lambda 8300 files

All the bug reported since the last beta version are fixed, except no fixes for the UI problems listed before. Feedback is welcome, specially if you find a P file that it doesn't list correctly

As before, works on Windows 32-bit/64-bit. Only tested on Windows 10, but probably will work on Window 7 & 8 and 11 too. Support for Windows XP dropped. I could add it back if anyone cares to use XP

Does anyone want to port it to Linux or MacOS or Android or iOS? Anyone want a command line version? Advantage over other P-to-BASIC apps is:

• Disassembles machine code in REM statements
• (optionally) creates an assembler file

Many thanks David,
A ten years old tool always useful for programming on our ZX81s.
