QUESTION

What language is this old program written in?

Asked 2018-Jul-15 at 16:13

"Hi, could you rewrite something for me", my boss said, "some legacy code". Yeah, legacy code written somewhere in early Mesozoic.

I have 30 hours left, and I still don't know, what kind of syntax is this! VHLD? VBA? Program is dedicated do to something with audio files, and dedicated to run under DOS.

Could you give me a hint what is this? How to compile it?

It's written in Forth, probably the DX-Forth dialect. The program decodes and encodes WAVE files that contain data in the Kansas City standard format. This format was used to record data on cassette tapes on early S-100 CP/M machines. Searching the web reveals that there was a program written in DX-Forth that could decode and encode WAVE files in this format, so I'm guessing it's the program you've be tasked with rewriting.

Rather than rewriting this code however, a simpler thing to do would be to use existing free software that already does the job. For example there's a program called py-kcs written in Python that should be a functional replacement and one called hx-kcs written in Haxe that can do decoding.
