Who remembers QBasic4.5?
Developer Galeon has made great head way with the QB64 compiler.
The speed is stunning as it's all compiled to C++ and it has great backward compatibility.
So far it runs on windows, mac and linux.
The forum user base continues to grow due to a big interest surrounding the new power a flexibility of this long loved language.
The forum members are kind and helpful but you must bring your side and show some progress.
The IDE is a clone of the original QB4.5 blue screen ide "blue eyes"
But there are a few alternatives.
The compiler is very powerful.
The wiki sets out Old QB commands and New commands in different categories.
The wiki is very detailed containing several snippets of code to help explain each command.
Some older commands have been slightly re-worked.
But much has stayed the same.
There is no 640KB memory limit.
So programers can really just ape.
It's has DLL support, unfortunately no QB4.5 libraries can be easily supported
But in today's day and age dll support is way more useful.
The newer commands allow for some very useful data and image commands.
Galeon is in the process of making qb64 even faster than it already is.
So it's shaping up to be a nice tool.
