Basic BASIC interpreter by B+man

I done this cos I was interested in how BP works... and this is enough! :) 
;Basic BASIC Interpreter
;Version 0.7
;Written by Michael Denathorn 2005 (www.dabzware.co.uk)
;
;Not the neatest of code, but not bad for a plasterer!!!
;See the Test.txt file for source code example (Which will run :) )
;
;Note:	If anyone finds this useful, all I ask is a mention somewhere
; 		in your credits... Thanks!!! ;)
;Note 2: At the moment, you cannot assign two strings together e.g.
;
;			a$ = "One string" + " Two string"
;
; I did have a little bother with it (it seemed to miss the '+' operator
; To fix it, find the left string operand token first (Just like in the INTEGER & FLOAT_
; IF statements). Then use the following before calling Get_Token() to check if it's a 
; DELIMITER token (Or a operator to you or me!!!):-
;
;			currentToken = currentToken + 1
;
; This should pick up the '+' operator when you call Get_Token(), then you can 
; safely move on to checking the right String operand!!! That should work!!!:)

Nice job!

Just for anyone else trying it, there are a few tabs at the end of lines in the example code at the bottom which need to be removed (gives "unexpected end of line" error otherwise).

Cheers James!

Glad you liked it... Since it's in your trade! LOL

cool :)

EDIT:

There seems to be a little bug: the line

For searchString = 0 To Len(tempLine$)

gives me a "Index must be greater than zero" error nomatter what I do. Editing it to:

For searchString = 1 To Len(tempLine$)

seems to fix it.

Wonder how I missed that one! :/

Anyway, Cheers jfk mate
