Petit Converter ver. 0.7.7 β

Run SB3 programs on SB4! This tool converts programs for SB3 to run on SB4. Many display instructions, such as XSCREEN, DISPLAY, Gxxx, SPxxx, and BGxxx are replaced with custom DEFs. Of course XON, XOFF, OPTION TOOL etc are also supported. Dual screen is supported using SB4 layers. This tool is beta version and still being developed; some programs may not work. Additionally, all the messages in GUI tool are Japanese. Converted programs depend on PETITC/PETITC.LIB; they cannot be run without it. Users have to download Petit Converter to run them. Japanese wiki page: http://wiki.hosiken.jp/petc4/?Toukou%2FPetitConverter プチコン3号/BIGのプログラムをプチコン4で！ このツールはプチコン3号/BIG用のプログラムをプチコン4で動作するように変換します。XSCREEN、DISPLAY、Gxxx、SPxxx や BGxxx のような多くの表示関係の命令などが変換されます。もちろん表示以外の命令 XON、XOFF、OPTION TOOL なども対応しています。プチコン4のレイヤーを利用して、2画面のエミュレートを実現しています。 このツールはベータ版であり、開発中です。一部のプログラムは動作しない可能性があります。また、GUIツール上のすべてのテキストは日本語です。 出力プログラムは PETITC/PETITC.LIB を参照しています。移植したプログラムはこれがなければ動作できません。公開されている移植プログラムを実行するには、プチコンバータをダウンロードする必要があります。 日本語 Wiki: http://wiki.hosiken.jp/petc4/?Toukou%2FPetitConverter

Oh I forgot you can't use 0 as ANY of the dimensions in sb4... Anyway can't you just replace DIM A[0,0] with DIM A[0]? LEN() will be the same I think the only difference is that PUSH/POP won't throw an error

It seems that multiplayer commands aren't dummied out yet, so they cause errors.
OK. I will fix it.

Wait I just remembered, there is a reason to make an empty multidimensional array 
DIM A[10,10]
SAVE "DAT:A",A

DIM B[0,0]
LOAD "DAT:A",B

And LOAD that loads a number array will be replaced with LOADV of SB4, but with LOADV, the dimensions of the array stored in the file and the destination array must match. If a multi-dimensional array declaration is replaced with a one-dimensional array declaration, that causes an error. 
DIM A[3,3]
SAVEV "DAT:A.DAT",A

DIM B[0] ' Assume replaced by DIM B[0,0]
LOADV "DAT:A.DAT",B ' "Type mismatch"!

Can this be used as a good start when porting SB3 titles? (Sure a lot has to be improved from there)
Why r u asking this?I don't have a Switch but in 6 months when I want to start developing SKKBAUI for Switch. Learning the syntax changes is No1 priority of course

Yes, you can upload an SB3 title in SB3, and someone can download it through SB4 and play it with Petit Converter on Switch!

Sure but I was talking about the port as the base, which works on SB4 to then turn it into a SB4-exclusive program.

That works too. You would have to convert it using the tool, then you can make additional changes manually if it doesn't work out-of-the-box.

Now we need the impossible, SB4 to SB3.

I don't know if the TALK command is different in SB4 but running the EX8TECHDEMO through this and going into the TALK demo gives me nightmares
