couple of newbie ?s
Does glBasic have a visual-dragDrop-IDE?
If not, is there a 3rd party visualIDE that would work with glBasic?
How close is glBasic to other Basic dialects?
Is there a Basic standard, like ANSI standards?
Are there pgms to translate otherBasics to glBasic?
Also, how does glBasic compare speedwise (of generated executable) with other Basics?
Thanks! ...Vern

IF angle<45 THEN angleup=TRUE
IF angle>135 THEN angleup=FALSE
IF angleup=TRUE THEN angle=angle+2/GETTIMER()
IF angleup=FALSE THEN angle=angle-2/GETTIMER()

Decimal, Hex, binary, byte, all possible.

No, but it is easy enough to learn that you could translate it all by hand.
Also, it can do inline C++ code.

Oh ya, and a cutting edge particle engine will be available some time this summer, soon hopefuly :)
Bing ChatGpt is pretty smart :O

You can copy/paste media files from the Windows Explorer to the IDE, it will create a LOADSPRITE command for you, then.

No, the IDE does more than just edit. I think about making a standalong compiler, though for other platforms.

It get's converted to C++ and then compiled. It's incredibly fast.
