Single-step BASIC emu?

Post by JonNorth »

Hi all!

So I know I can use specemu/spin to step through machine code with "virtual" breakpoints without writing to ram, which is cool and actually really bloody handy, but is there a good emu to essentially single step the basic of a loading system before the code fires? My xlr8 thing did some quite gnarly stuff but idr what so would like a simple way to go through it without the complexities of the "old fashioned" way... Thanks all

@JonNorth,

It's not something I regularly use, but BASin emulator looks like it supports single step. It's a combined IDE and emulator specifically for BASIC development. It's pretty long in the tooth now, but runs on W11 without issues. It's still very popular.

@ZXDunny wrote it, so should be able to help if you get stuck.

There is also an updated spin-off project here:
