If you want to write Basic program, use the Sam Basic. You can't write it in a text file!!! That will never work without a special Basic simulator/converter. Original Sam Basic uses format similar to ZX Spectrum basic, including all numbers in binary format, line numbers in binary format, tokenized commands/keywords (i.e. single byte per keyword), and variables stored in binary form with the Basic program in a single file.

Indeedy.

Have a look at Ian's REXX script for the tokens, this converts Sam Basic -> ASCII but if you were so inclined you could work it out the other way.
