     SBasic User's Manual     SBasic Version 2.7              Page 2
     Printed:  December 5, 1999
     Introduction


     This manual describes the use of the SBasic (SB) compiler.  SB is a
     PC-based cross-compiler for a subset of the Basic language.  Source
     files containing SBasic statements are compiled into a source file of
     assembly language for the target machine.  Subsequent assembly of that
     file yields an exectuable file for the target machine.

     SB creates code for either a 68hc11 or 68hc12 target.  For the 68hc11,
     SB's output code is compatible with the Motorola FREEWARE asmhc11
     assembler, which is bundled with the SBasic distribution files.  For
     the 68hc12, SB's output code is compatible with the Motorola FREEWARE
     as12 assembler, available from several sites on the Internet,
     including my web site (http://www.seanet.com/~karllunt).

     The SBasic compiler was written in Borland C (version 4.52), and is
     compiled as a 32-bit DOS standard app.  My SB design is loosely based
     on a small Basic interpreter developed by Herbert Schildt and
     presented in his excellent book, "The Art of C."  (Osborne McGraw-
     Hill, Berkeley, CA   94710; ISBN 0-07-881691-2)
