 XC=BASIC contributors wanted

As you may already know, XC=BASIC (https://xc-basic.net/), the BASIC cross-compiler supports the C-16 and Plus/4 machines since version 3.0.

The improved and extended version 3.1 is on the way, however I have difficulties to implement all the new features to the C264 series computers.

If you'd like to join the dev team (that is, me currently grin) please let me know in the comments.

Cheers

You can download it from GitHub: https://github.com/neilsf/xc-basic3
Make sure you read the installation instructions: https://xc-basic.net/doku.php?id=v3:installation_and_usage

Network error when you're downloading from GitHub?

I request cartridge support, like I have for cc65 and CBM computers at https://sourceforge.net/projects/cc65extra/files/memory%20cfgs/. BTW, does it support hidden memory or extra memory?

If you have a feature request, please open an issue on GitHub where you explain your request in details. Thanks.
I'm not sure what you mean by hidden/extra memory.

I call the memory behind the C64's ROMs and I/O "hidden" memory and the C128's Bank 1 and the Plus4's 256k Hannes memory "extra" memory.

BASIC ROM on the C64 is banked out by default. On the Plus 4, ROM is banked in by default. You can use POKE to change this.
