For anyone who is fimilar with Microsoft's Quick BASIC interpreter. There is a new programming language called FreeBASIC. It is based on Quick BASIC's syntax and Microsoft did not write it, so it is much faster. It has a 32bit multi platform compiler that can use libraries such as FMOD, DirectX and many others.
Some old BASIC programs can not be directly used in FreeBASIC because DEF SEG, Call absolute and some other keywords are no longer supported. FreeBASIC now uses pointers to reference memory like C++.
