BaCon compiler 1.0.21

March 05, 2011 — BarryK
Wary 5.1.x has BaCon "1.0.21pre" in the devx sfs, which was announced here:
http://bkhome.org/archive/blog2/201102/bacon-compiler-20110214.html

I have upgraded to 1.0.21 (670KB):

There are significant enhancements, especially closer Qbasic syntax support and internationalisation support:

BaCon was compiled in Wary, however the PET will work in all puppies.

"I have re-uploaded the PET, as a bug was discovered with the 'fetch' utility that is included in the package. This was discussed on the BaCon forum: http://basic-converter.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=bugs&action=display&thread=86 Note that 'fetch' is also included in Woof, in the 'support' directory.
