The QB64 project is already in use in both +educational and professional contexts and has an active and helpful +user community. + +Unlike traditional BASIC and QBasic code, QB64 gets compiled +automatically into machine code – allowing exceptional performance, +easy distribution, and the ability to link with external C and C++ +programming libaries. Compatible with most QBasic 4.5 code, QB64 +adds a number of extensions, such as OpenGL and other modern +features, providing the perfect blend of classic and modern +program development. + +This package installs to /opt/ but a user directory is +required in $HOME in order to run the program and its data. |
