Description
The Bywater BASIC Interpreter (bwBASIC) implements a large superset of the ANSI Standard for Minimal BASIC (X3.60-1978) and a significant subset of the ANSI Standard for Full BASIC (X3.113-1987) in C. It also offers shell programming facilities as an extension of BASIC. bwBASIC seeks to be as portable as possible.
Originally written by Ted A. Campbell, and released under the GPL. It was posted to comp.sources.misc, volume 40. It was hosted for a while at ftp.eng.umd.edu.
Patched by Jon B. Volkoff. Version 2.20 was released 25 November 1995 Patch 1: 15 March 1996 Patch 2: 11 October 1997
Patch 2 includes new files for UNIX ncurses interface, compliments of L.C. Benschop, Eindhoven, The Netherlands.
