Searching the right BASIC/compiler pse
Hi Peeps,
I'm a bit of a newbie, but this does look the right place...
I currently use HiSoft BASIC on my Amigas, which isn't a bad version at
all. It has, in the past, imported and run without any mods at all,
(apart from some screen display bits) GWBASIC source.
What I wanna do now is port the HiSoft BASIC sources to the PC.
So basically (sorry) I am asking if GWBASIC is the one I want, and does
it have a compiler to produce stand-alone .exe's ?
I need serial/random access file handling, but nothing special graphic
wise, juss text mainly. A disk based manual would be cool.
Things like SWAP for sort routines would be nice,coz got some BIG data
files to sort in runtime environment..
Obviously, I dont wanna be spending any/much dosh :-)
Whaddayarekkon ???
