I've always been a lurker on cemetech but today I want to share a pip package I made. I'm not very good at programming and I only tested on my TI-84+ so I'm sure there's some bugs and oversights but basically its a command line tool to convert between BASIC program files on TI-83+, TI-84+, TI-84+ CE, and TI-84+ CSE and readable text. I basically (ha) did this so I could use modern IDE features like in VS Code. Some extensions that go well are TI-Basic by Tiny_Hacker and ti-basic-autocomplete by beastmatser

Excellent work! You may also be interested in kg's tivars_lib_py project, as well as the tokens repository, which attempts to standardize and document such textual representations (among other things!)

Wow! I looked all over but could find nothing like this. This would have been very helpful. I’m also working on a VS Code extension that will integrate a complete workspace with features like a token catalog and automatic conversion. This will be very useful for that. Thank you!

There's also my own project/library https://github.com/adriweb/tivars_lib_cpp which is C++ but that you can build to js/wasm, something you might need for simpler vscode integration? (Unless it's easy to run Python from a js extension but...)

absolutely the python thing was a learning experience i dont plan to use it in the extension. Thank you for your work!
