Future versions of BASIC introduced structure and required
or included a text editor. This project is a historical
preservation of BASIC just before then. A time when most
people were learning about computers by typing in BASIC
programs published in books and magazines.
The first computer book to sell one million copies was a
collection of BASIC Computer Games. It was followed up with
More BASIC Computer Games. You can run all those and more
with this dialect of BASIC.
