I am very curious about your setup. I haven't used basic since the 90's when every computer had DOS and QBasic installed on it.

What are you writing Basic in? What are you compiling it with? What libraries should I look at to do the basic (heh) stuff like write to a window and get keyboard input?

Small correction: when I said “BASIC” I meant the BASIC family — I’m actually using Visual Basic 6 (VB6) on Windows. It’s the classic late-90s/2000s RAD IDE. I compile with the built-in VB6 compiler (usually “Native Code”) and stick to the standard controls/runtime (no external libraries).
