Well, if you upgraded to ks7 or later, you would have access to text
adventure games (z5 or z8 files). You could use Inform, the
programming language for these games, to write programs, but there is
not much support for math or object oriented programs, so it is hard
to say how far you would get. JS is the best thing I have found for
programming on a bn. Let me share a few things I have discovered about
it:
1. The only event handlers supported are onClick, onLoad, and
onUnload. Nothing with focus, blur, key events, dblClick, mouseOver,
or mouseOut will work.
2. If your program does not run and you have no clue why, try removing
the semicolons after any array declarations. I have no idea why, but
this often seems to help.
3. The bn does not support millisecond or better times; it can only go
down to the second.
4. Updating html elements with a call to innerText or innerHTML will
not work at all (this is part of what is known generally as dhtml,
dynamic html). Similarly, no ajax calls or other non-reloading updates
will work.
