@haiku_brian @hacks4pancakes oh, ya, good job I got a #newtonScript IDE sorted ...

I’ve been meaning to try 10PRINT in #NewtonScript or #NSBASIC for ages.

Thirty years ago today, Apple announced the release of Newton Toolkit 1.5, an “enhanced” version featuring a new #NewtonScript compiler and profiler, as well as Newton Book Maker 1.1 for Mac OS.

Thirty. Years.

Can anyone recommend an app for importing a text file into a soup or for converting it into a pkg file? The text file consists of records delimited by newlines these in turn consist of fields separated by commas or tabs.

The first field (aka first column) should be used as the key.

I know I can massage the data into #NewtonScript arrays and use Einstein to convert it into a pkg, but I'd prefer an alternate path.

I still hope Apple announces a new modern NewtonScript at WWDC. I miss template programming. It made sense.

I would trade Swift/SwiftUI for NewtonScript any day of the week. (My opinion). Swift/SwiftUI syntax is academic in nature and not very approachable. NewtonScript is strange, but approachable.
