Hi Dick,
I agree completely, not tokenizing a program makes very little sense. Tokens
allow program execution to be faster, while having smaller program size.
I can't undestand why anyone would write an interpreter that has to parse
through a long, full length list of commands. Even a 2 byte token system
(which I assume would be needed), would increase efficiency grreatly.
MicroSoft Basic???? Anyone know whether it tokenizes?
