While you are correct about QBasic and QuickBasic not being the same
I really wish someone would make something that runs on a modern
microcontroller that is as as good as those old BASICs, add
special capabilities from the stamp world such as PWM and
reading a pot/capacitor using a digital pin, maybe steal a few
ideas about structure from QBASIC (which is *not* the same thing
as QuickBasic) and release it as open source.
thing, they both come from a common source code base, IMO. I have dug
around the insides of all of them, and the common points get pretty
obvious after a while.
The RepRap world would eat it up.RepRap ?
QBASIC 1.1 is 194,309 bytes, compressed. 250k or so uncompressed.
And it relies on DOS for file I/O and memory management -- another
100k or so? Would it even fit on a modern microcontroller?
