OK, that's got some serious potential. I'll get out my big Que QBASIC* book in a little while and start looking up commands that I don't recognize. The ones that Que won't tell me about, I can open QuickBASIC and look up in there.

The only "bug" that I see in that whole thing is that the word for what I just typed two of, above, is spelled "sentence" sorry, my mother used to be a librarian, a while back. She edits me as I speak!

*QBASIC and QuickBASIC are largely interchangeable, except that QBASIC doesn't come with a compiler.

Hi all,
Mis spelling is not a bug. LOL. You can look over the QB64 wiki for references and explanations of all the QBasic commands. Here a link ti the wiki. Keep in mind the new QB64 commands ALWAYS have an underscore while the older original commands dont!

Note this is the front page and it contains a section that is "Keywords currently not supported by QB64". http://qb64.net/wiki/index.php?title=Ke ... ed_by_QB64

You could try your old programs in QB64 and if any dont work , notify the creator as he is always looking to improve the backward compatibility with the original language.
