A BASIC program listing line renumberer/cruncher (aka, a minifier).
This program is currently in beta testing. It will probably break your program. The documentation is minimal. Things will change frequently.
What if you could turn this:

And then turn that into this:
With BASIC Wrangler, you can!
The purpose of BASIC Wrangler is to allow you to write BASIC programs using labels in a dialect-agnostic way. It also combines and crunches lines to take up the least amount of space on output, thus saving you memory. It is designed to be able to work with almost any dialect of line numbered BASIC.
To install with pip, type:
pip install basic-wranglerThere is also a standalone version available for Windows under the Release tab.
If you are not running Windows 10, you may need to download the x86 version of the Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015. The standalone version does not work on Windows XP.
To load the GUI, type bw (a harmless console window might open up behind the main window -- ignore it). Type bw -h for CLI help. For more, check out the Manual in the docs directory.
