QB64 is a modern extended BASIC programming language that retains
|
||
QBasic/QuickBASIC 4.5 compatibility and compiles native binaries for
|
||
Windows, Linux, and macOS.
|
||
|
||
The QB64 project has evolved over the last decade to bring the magic
|
||
and educational potential of BASIC from its 20th century roots into
|
||
the modern era. The QB64 project is already in use in both
|
||
educational and professional contexts and has an active and helpful
|
||
user community.
|
||
|
||
Unlike traditional BASIC and QBasic code, QB64 gets compiled
|
||
automatically into machine code – allowing exceptional performance,
|
||
easy distribution, and the ability to link with external C and C++
|
||
programming libaries. Compatible with most QBasic 4.5 code, QB64
|
||
adds a number of extensions, such as OpenGL and other modern
|
||
features, providing the perfect blend of classic and modern
|
||
program development.
|
||
|
||
On first run this package installs ~/.config/qb64-2.1
|
||
in $HOME in order to run the program and its data.
|
||
You can delete this directory and rebuild you local configuration
|
||
by relaunching the program.
