Compatible with most QBasic 4.5 code, QB64pe +adds a number of extensions, such as OpenGL and other modern +features, providing the perfect blend of classic and modern +program development. + +On first run this package installs ~/.config/qb64pe-3.8.0 +in $HOME in order to run the program and its data. +You can delete this directory and rebuild you local configuration +by relaunching the program. |
