Oh, right, I played with this from the examples folder of BBC Basic. Really neat idea! Wish I could have played with Teletext more, but a combination of factors prevented me from doing so before everyone started turning it off.

Yes, it's only the example program from BBC BASIC but I thought it deserved its own listing. It can also be run on the web without needing to download anything (I wish itch.io allowed you to publish an app with both download and web implementations, but it doesn't seem to).

Of course it allows you! Simply upload any additional files to a project set as HTML5 and they'll be offered for download in the usual way.

No, it's Web Assembly (compiled by Emscripten) so I can provide a URL but not a file (unless the file is just a dummy redirect of course) I can't see anywhere that I can specify a URL so that it is listed with the downloads as an alternative way of running it.

Ooh, right, 'cause it's hosted on your site. Yeah, in that case you have to upload an index.html that does nothing except load that URL in an iframe. It's fairly common.
