download a BASIC object file

You can compile the code, the _temp.out file in %temp%/coridium directory is the
hex file that gets downloaded onto the ARMmite

thats typically in

documents and settings\"your user name"\local settings\temp\coridium

...thankyou microsoft

TclTerm a long time ago loaded these files, but now BASICtools does that, and
TclTerm needed fixing (in the files section here and will get into the release
next week)

So you compile the BASIC, and download it, then send that _temp.out file
(actually if you rename it other than .out, the old TclTerm works for download)

But there's no simple way to modify that code once its in a .out file

Re: download a BASIC object file

I recently had a request from an OEM to be able to download a pre-compiled BASIC file. This is not the first time, and at one time TclTerm did it, another time I wrote a utility.

This time I added the feature to BASICtools (version 5.44 and later)

http://www.coridium.us/files/setupBASIC.exe

In BASICtools, select File -> Load File
In the Files of Type selection (bottom of popup box) Choose precompile BASIC files -- .out or .hex

This will download the compiled program, without having to send out source.

Your compiled program will be %temp%\Coridium\__temp.out

I suggest you copy and rename it before sending it out :D
