Having started programming in 1966 I have done a lot of basic, and like it, especially for simple things. I was interested in this product, downloaded it installed it all with a few mouse clicks. The IDE is intuitive and easy to use. Haven't tried "Graphics" yet but look forward to trying it soon. I have scored Features and Support "5" each but as yet have had no reason to use them. To you developer(s), thanks for a great product. :-) After reading other reviews I also would like to produce exe files that run independently of the IDE.

Great project. I think it's a good way to get started with programming. It would be great if the Linux version were 2.0.0.1, too though. I am currently working on easy examples of all the things that can be done with Basic-256. For example additions with values, additions with variables and additions where the user is being asked to enter some values that will then be added. Would be cool if there were more examples like this in the official documentation, too. Also it would be cool if there was an easy way to create a GUI that could be exported as executable so the people could write a calculator, a spreadsheet calculation program, a database management tool or or or with Basic-256.
