I did mention XBasic because that seems to be the _only_ Basic dialect to be found for the Linux environment at all. And indeed I would like to find a textmode/comnand line Basic (or for that matter, just any other language but C_variant), in order to port some DOS stuff; except for system (administration) utilities and some editors there are miserably few textmode _applications_ in those Linux "distros". // Heimo Claasen // // Brussels 2002-10-20 The WebPlace of ReRead - and much to read ==> http://www.revobild.net - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
