Description
A Plea.
Deanna and I (Your Older Geeks) have been running OlderGeeks.com since 2008 and lately we are seeing a major increase in usage (and cost) but a big decline in percentage of users who donate. Our ad-free and junkware-free download site only works if everyone chips in to offset the revenue that ads on other sites bring in. Please donate on the website today. Every little bit helps. Thank you so much.

bas55 v2.00

ECMA-55 Minimal BASIC System

bas55 is an implementation of the Minimal BASIC programming language as defined by the ECMA-55 standard. bas55 provides an interpreter and an editor with line renumbering capabilities.



bas55 is free software under the terms of the GNU General Public License version 3 or later.

• Browse the online manual.
• Download the National Bureau of Standards test programs for Minimal BASIC: nbs-20210703.zip (July 3 2021). These have been compiled by John Gatewood Ham. bas55 has been tested using these programs.
• If you run an x86-64 machine running Linux and you want a compiler instead of an interpreter, check out the free software ECMA-55 Minimal BASIC compiler, written by John Gatewood Ham. John is also the author of the great free book An introduction to Programming with ECMA-55 Minimal BASIC.

Changes:
v2.00 2023-05-06
* IMPORTANT NOTICE: from this version, bas55 is under the GNU General Public License version 3 or later. Previous versions were under a Expat/MIT license. The manual is under the GNU Free Documentation License.
* Support for GNU Readline added. Changing to GPL makes it easier to support GNU Readline, which as of this writting works perfectly and is very robust, compared to the readline interface of NetBSD's libedit that we were using, which was not behaving completely compatible with GNU Readline. This means that on GNU/Linux and BSDs you can compile the program with GNU Readline support or NetBSD libedit support, if they are installed. I recommend that, if you can, use GNU Readline. See the README file for instructions on how to compile the program with support for one or the other.
* Fixed: we were allowing to enter arbitrary characters when INPUT was
called and entered them between double quotes. Only the characters allowed by the standard are accepted now. Moreover, characters entered are automatically set in upper case.
* The maximum number of characters on a BASIC line has been limited to 72 to comply with the standard and other implementations. Previously we where allowing for 80 characters on a line.
* Fixed: we were allowing to assign, to a string variable, strings with
more than 18 characters, either by LET, INPUT or READ. The standard
limits to 18 characters.
* Removed the --license command line option and the LICENSE command.
* Fixed bas55.info top node.
* Corrected typo in P008.BAS (BEING -> BEGIN). Thanks John.
* Fixed SIEVE.BAS so it initializes its array to zeros to comply with
other ECMA55 implementations.
* Added HAMURABI.BAS and BAGELS.BAS, courtesy of B. Watson.
* Added THANKS file.
