32-bit Vintage BASIC (ver 1.0.1) Freeware Vintage BASIC is a language derived from the Microsoft's original Altair BASIC. Vintage BASIC is an interpreter with a language that is close to Microsoft's BASIC version 2 as found in the Commodore 64. It is "informed by (but [does] not always stick to) the ANSI Minimal BASIC standard (ANSI X.360-1978)" (as noted in its user guide). You can enter your program using a normal programmer's / text editor. If you are nostalgic for the old BASIC interpreters of bygone days, or simply want to learn to program in BASIC without having to master the event-driven, object-oriented and window/form-based programming metaphors present in many compilers today, this BASIC interpreter may interest you. The program works on Windows from the command line. ----- This is a slightly older 32-bit version of the Windows command-line BASIC Interpreter. Unlike the newer version, this version is "stand-alone", and doesn't require installing. Simply extract "vintbas.exe", open a command-line, and run the program. SYNTAX = vintbas ["programname".bas]
