      Hallo Benny!               BP> will it run all c64 basic programs with peek and pokes ?              Send some example code and I'll give it a try. All I know for sure is that       hello.bas compiles without any grief and is a pure 64-bit executable on the       x86_64-silvermont-linux-gnu host where gcc-8.2.0 bootstrapped it. I haven't       run across any documentation that discusses compatibilty yet ... other than       the qbasic quote Little Mikey posted in this echo.               BP> will it do all commodore 128d basic programs with mmu and 1024k        BP> free mem ?              I don't know. My best guess is that it doesn't matter. I didn't see       commodore portabilty listed anywhere. I did notice that freebasic can be       ported to win32, win64 and dos, as well as to linux and bsd. I managed to get       it working as a pure 64-bit linux without too much grief. How about you?               BP> google unicomal and ibm              See http://freshmeat.sourceforge.net/projects/opencomal as well as the pure       linux port at https://github.com/poldy/OpenCOMAL.              Het leven is goed,       Maurice              ...
