Why only ASCII is supported? It's a suprising limitation. First I thougth it was a mistake of the manual: I thougth it meant only the identifiers. But effectively, UTF-8 or even Latin 1 strings are not accepted in BASIC sources (all non-ASCII characters are removed). And only ASCII characters are accepted by the command line interpreter.

Is nuBASIC ASCII-only by design? Or is UTF-8 going to be supported (at least just to print strings, not to manipulate them) in a future version?

Cheap Lenovo running Linux Mint in a (very much) low end model. Sadly libgcc1:i386 seems to be pretty important around here:

I guess you are using libgcc1 for a reason, but can I do something to make it compatible?

Hello.

nuBASIC seems great, and I want to try it, especially because the nuBASIC programs could run on Android as well, with Termux. It could be a good option for a text console project of mine.

But I'm having problems with the compilation:

When I executed <./configure> in order to prepare the compilation of nuBASIC 1.51 I got:

configure: error: cannot find install-sh, install.sh, or shtool in "./" "./.." "./../.."

After a bit DuckDuckGoing, I found a solution: execute autoreconf -i first, which produced the following output:

configure.ac:17: installing './compile'
configure.ac:20: installing './config.guess'
configure.ac:20: installing './config.sub'
configure.ac:6: installing './install-sh'
configure.ac:6: installing './missing'
configure.ac:212: error: required file 'ide/gtk/mipjson/miptknzr/lib/Makefile.in' not found
configure.ac:212: error: required file 'ide/gtk/mipjson/lib/Makefile.in' not found
configure.ac:212: error: required file 'ide/gtk/Makefile.in' not found
Makefile.am: installing './depcomp'
autoreconf: automake failed with exit status: 1

Despite the exit status, then "configure" worked at last, though it failed at the end:

checking for strerror... yes
checking whether compiling gtkide... no
checking whether compiling tinyver... no
checking for xterm... no
configure: WARNING: Please install xterm for graphical programs.
checking for gnome-terminal... no
configure: error: Please install xterm or gnome-terminal before install

I guessed that was about 256-color support. I use GNU Screen on lxterminal. I restarted with rxvt instead and I got this at the end:

checking for xterm... yes
configure: WARNING: Please install xterm for graphical programs.
checking for xmessage... yes
checking for X... libraries , headers

checking that generated files are newer than configure... done
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile
config.status: creating lib/Makefile
config.status: creating config.h
config.status: executing depfiles commands

There was still a warning about xterm, but It seemed fine (I tried also with (u)xterm, tilda and other terminal emulators, but no difference).

But "make" only displayed this and halted:

Makefile:511: .deps/main.Po: No existe el fichero o el directorio
make: *** No hay ninguna regla para construir el objetivo '.deps/main.Po'. Alto.

Effectively, there's no ".deps" directory.

It seems I'm missing something. Any clue?

Thank you
