Basic & DOS?

Hi Peter

I'm a little puzzled.

If you want to code "old style", why would that exclude modern options?

I find it fun to go back to the old days of 80s BASIC sometimes, but I don't really mind if I can do it with some modern touch.

Are there any active retro programmers out there? - peter swinkels (Fri Nov 28 2025 at 5:25 am)
