ScriptBasic is a scripting implementation of the BASIC language. The
|
||
|
|
aim of this implementation is to provide a general and widely used
|
||
|
|
tool for the simple programmer. One of the reason behind the success
|
||
|
|
of the Microsoft operating systems is VisualBasic, which is built into
|
||
|
|
many of the applications Microsoft delivers. Why are UNIX and other
|
||
|
|
non-Microsoft operating system users prohibited to use the simplest
|
||
|
|
programming language?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ScriptBasic is a BASIC implementation, which aims not less than
|
||
|
|
becoming the most widely used scripting tool on UNIX systems. It is
|
||
|
|
portable, it is BASIC, it is a scripting tool and it is GNU LGPL.
