I'm afraid that I don't understand your question. Can you post an example or two of what you are asking about?

Hi Repton,

Programs that only use BBC BASIC commands should transfer pretty much "as is". If you are using Windows API commands (using SYS) you will need to find the SDL equivalent: the difficulty of conversion will depend on how similar the commands are!

Richard has produced equivalent versions of most libraries, so if you can manage the things you want through libraries, again conversion should be pretty straightforward.

Hope that's helpful - do come back with clarifications/examples if not!

Best wishes,
