What is HSP?
HSP is a scripting language system that anyone can easily use. You can easily build applications such as game programs, screen savers, tools and practical software using images just by writing a text script.
HSP has the following features.
- Get started right away in a free development environment
- Easy-to-remember instruction set makes it easy for beginners to handle
- The created program can be converted into an executable file and redistributed freely, and no license fee is required
- Many functions such as 3D display and communication can be added by the extension plug-in module
- We have many user assets and usage records for over 30 years
- Equipped with detailed manual and reference help system
- A wealth of books and materials as a purely domestic tool
- Software created by the conversion function of HSP3Dish can be run on android, iOS, Linux, WEB browser (html5)
- Includes libraries for hardware control such as USB-IO and Arduino
- Interpreter operating specifications are open source
HSP can be used in various situations depending on your idea.
- For creating games of various genres from visual novels to full-scale 3D shooting
- For creating desktop accessories and screen savers
- For instant tools such as prototype screen layout and image data conversion
- For media browsers such as program launchers, menus, CG collections, music collections, etc.
- Other full-scale applications can be developed
Operating environment
HSP3 can run the development environment on Microsoft Windows, Linux / Raspberry Pi . For detailed installation and usage, refer to the manual for each platform.
See the programming manual for HSP3 grammar and programming rules.
The only development environment that supports the full functionality of HSP3 is the Windows version. The Linux / Raspberry Pi version only supports the command line version and HSP3Dish.
Source code created in these development environments can be run on android, iOS, html5 (WebGL) . (There are some restrictions for each platform)
For more information on multi-platform, see HSP3Dish Programming Manual .

About the latest version
Please check the official site HSPTV! for the announcement of the stable version and beta test version.
The latest beta version of Windows under development is also available on OneDrive at any time.
You can get the entire archive from "Download".
The Windows version of the source code is mastered by the OpenHSP Subversion repository. The Linux / Raspberry Pi version will be updated from time to time in the github repository.
The beta version is a test version for verifying new features and fixes. Please note that there is a possibility of unexpected problems.
If something goes wrong or the operation is not stable, it is recommended to revert to the previous version and use it.
- HSP β version (OneDrive)
- OpenHSP Subversion repository
- OpenHSP github repository
Future plans
We will continue to develop HSP3 with the aim of creating an environment where ideas can be realized more easily and in a short time.
From the many requests and bug reports, we would like to gradually incorporate the ones that can be implemented.
Future plans and future considerations are as follows.
- HSP3.6
-
We will continue to update the updated version for the functions that could not be introduced in HSP3.51. The functions that are being considered for introduction in the future are as follows. (It does not mean that it is done in this order.)
- Renewal of packfile, review of encryption function
- Modification of HSP script editor and expansion of input / debug support
- Organize and expand module functions
- 32bit support and speedup of HSP drawing buffer
- Sharing code and materials using internet connection, community support
HSP2 first appeared in 1997, and HSP3 eight years later, but I hope to be able to connect to the next generation as the times change.
The situation required for programming is also changing. While inheriting the convenience of HSP, I would like to announce a roadmap that is easy to use with some compatibility cut.
Currently, we are considering full UTF-8, 64-bit support, automatic code analysis and learning function, VM renewal (llvm etc.), native compilation (JIT) and so on.
HSP User Community
Opinions and information are exchanged between HSP users, and support is also actively carried out. Many homepages are introduced by related links on the HSP official page. In addition, various information is also provided on the following pages.
- HSP Center (Various information for beginners, lectures, etc.)
- HSP bug track (report bug, check progress, etc.)
- OpenHSP github repository
- HSPWiKi (WiKi about HSP that anyone can write)

About professional student collaboration material
The HSP3.6 full set includes materials related to Tamane-chan and Prosei-chan, created in collaboration with the live programming character "Professional Student" and the HSP3 mascot character "Tamane-chan".
The recorded material is the same as "HSP3.6 Pro Student Edition".
The HSP3.6 full set has the same specifications as the main body, except for the background material of the script editor and the 3D material of the professional student from the HSP3.6 professional student edition.
The following files are provided as professional student collaboration materials.

About managing language specifications
The language specifications of Hot Soup Processor including HSP2 and HSP3 are Onion Software / onitama is in charge of maintenance.
For HSP language specification changes and requests for reorganization, please contact the developer community and bulletin boards. We accept HSP3 WishList, HSP Wiki, etc. and are considering it.
The processing system that plays a central role in HSP interpreter code generation and execution is as OpenHSP. Published by open source. By publishing the source related to HSP3 with open specifications, it is possible to support more environments and reliability. We would like to improve maintainability.

Use for educational purposes
Onion software is continuing activities to popularize it while proposing the use of IT basic education through HSP.
Please use it for elementary school, junior high school, high school classes, club activities, etc. Of course, the HSP itself can be used free of charge, and the attached manuals, documents, etc. You can freely quote, reorganize, and redistribute texts such as help data. In addition, many reference books are on sale in Japan, and a lot of information is available even if you study by yourself.
Lectures have already been given in some computer classrooms, and even in the "IT Craftsmanship Project" supported by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, Education using HSP was practiced.
HSP is considered to have many advantages for beginners and beginners. Beginners and beginners think that it is necessary to create an environment where they can enjoy learning more than anything else, and the pictures move and the sounds come out. We emphasize elements that allow us to continue learning without losing interest, such as reacting.
The following pages provide information about educational uses.

From the author
HSP is not particularly compatible with other languages (although it is mostly BASIC), Nor does it have a new language system.
The aim of HSP is an old-style personal computer system.
Older computers are overwhelmingly poorer in memory and CPU speed than current ones, I turned it on and it was ready to use, and I could see the result immediately by typing RUN on BASIC. I feel that such an easy and easy system is being lost in today's personal computers.
There are no advanced language specifications such as object-oriented here, It's easy to write in the order you want. And I think that is also one way for small-scale development and beginner programming learning.
HSP is by no means a versatile system. If you want to do more advanced things or large-scale development with an interpreter, Languages such as C #, Python, and Java are better suited. I wish HSP could make a small turn for a little processing that does not need to use such a high-class language.
