More #Z80 adventure fun! I ported Delysio's "Tale of Ancient Land" from #TurboPascal 3 to my own PASTA/80 (which was relatively straightforward). It now runs on two new platforms, #AgonLight and #ZXSpectrumNext, in addition to the #CPM original.

PASTA/80 can now run its own units tests automatically. Simply invoke pasta80 --zxnext --tests, and it will compile all suites for the Next, launch and terminate emulators, and collect results. In the meantime, grab a coffee. 🙂 #pascal #cpm #zxspectrum #zxspectrumnext #agonlight #retrocomputing

🔥 Discover this trending post from Hacker News 📖 📂 Category: 💡 Here’s what you’ll learn: PASTA/80 is a simple Pascal cross compiler targeting the Z80 microprocessor. It generates code for these classic and modern machines: The compiler follows the single-pass recursive-descent approach championed by Niklaus Wirth, inventor of Pascal, in his books and lectures. It doesn't have an explicit syntax tree, but instead generates code on the fly during parsing.
