I have put together a SAM Coupé program for importing Spectrum BASIC from disk, including variables, auto-run etc. The translation is based on BTRANS from the MGT Utility Tapes to which I (after hacking it to bits) added variable importing and disk support.

Inspired by @samsterdave.bsky.social asking about BASIC variables recently. I had started disassembling BTRANS back in 2023 when I couldn’t find a disk version (tape load only). I was only planning to add disk loading but importing variables wasn’t too tricky (FOR/NEXT was a bit of challenge tho!)
