Description

Hitachi BASIC is a BASIC extension that is available in some Hitachi computers.

Note: Stricto sensu, the extra instructions linked to a built-in software (CALL CMT, CALL MON, CALL TABOFF, CALL TABON) are not part of the Hitachi BASIC instructions. They are mentioned apart in the table below.

Versions

There are 2 versions of this extension:
- Version 1 is available in the MB-H2 MSX1 computer
- Version 2 is available in the MB-H3 MSX2 computer

The MB-H21 MSX1 computer is the little brother of the MB-H2. As there is no built-in data recorder, it has only the CALL HCOPY instruction, the instructions related to the Cassette Operation Guide are not available.

Instructions

Version1 has 15 instructions and version 2 comes with 6 instructions.

Note: CALL can be replaced by the character underscore (_). A space is not required after this character. See CALL for more info.
