Hey guys, for a school project, I need to read a .8xp file with PHP. Of course, I can use
file_get_contents( but that gives me strings, and I want the hex/decimals into an array. Now the token "Disp " becomes Þ instead of $DE (or 222). Any idea how to do that? Thanks in advance!

I don't entirely understand your question. Do you want to be able to read tokenized data out of a program file, like being able to get "Disp", or do just want to open it like any other binary file? For the first, this might prove useful: https://github.com/adriweb/tivars_lib
Indeed my tivars_lib code should help you do that in PHP.
The
tests.php file is full of example, but basically, you'd need to do:
Code: <?php
include_once "src/autoloader.php";
use tivars\TIVarFile;
$testPrgm = TIVarFile::loadFromFile('the/path/to/your/program.8xp');
$testPrgmContent = $testPrgm->getReadableContent();
Then the program, as a human-readable string, is in $testPrgmContent.
Unfortunately, this is not exactly what I want
Your library converts the input to readable string, which is nice, but when I display
$testPrgmContent[0], it displays "F" and I need the first token, which is
For(. Still a good library though!
Any other ideas about how to convert the input to tokens (or corresponding hex)? Thanks in advance!
UPDATE: I found a way to read it, better said, the hex. I got it from
this. This is my code:
Code: <?php
$handle = @fopen("TEST.8xp", "r");
if ($handle) {
while (!feof($handle)) {
$buffer[] = fgets($handle, 400);
}
fclose($handle);
// $buffer[0][0] = chr(hexdec("FF")); // set the first byte to 0xFF
echo bin2hex($buffer[2][7]);
}
Another option for an open-source TI token manipulation library would be
elfprince13's excellent TITokens, which works with many different languages (and can be used for many different purposes, including syntax highlighting, tokenization, etc). Pro-tip from SAX: to get started, execute
https://github.com/elfprince13/TITokens/blob/master/build.sh .
