fabasic

fabasic is a BASIC interpreter for AROS AArch64
(Raspberry Pi). The language follows the ANSI/ISO Full BASIC core with
QBasic-style extensions, and adds modules for modern programs:

  - classic BASIC: structured code, SUB/FUNCTION, TYPE records,
    libraries (MODULE / USE), sequential and random access files
  - windows with Zune: buttons, lists, tables, menus, tabs, dialogs,
    timers, events
  - games: canvas, sprites, collisions, tile maps (also isometric and
    from the Tiled editor), path finding, smooth frame loop
  - sound through AHI: tones, WAV and 8SVX samples
  - network: HTTP/HTTPS, JSON, TCP, UDP, MQTT
  - Raspberry Pi hardware: GPIO, I2C, BME280, DS18B20, OLED,
    VideoCore firmware readings
  - -pack: interpreter and program in one executable
  - faedit: editor and IDE - syntax colours, themes, F5 runs the
    program and jumps to the line of an error

About 50 example programs are included, from small console programs
to games and a Home Assistant reader. Manual in English and Polish.
This archive contains AROS AArch64 programs only - they do not run
on Linux, Windows, AROS x86 or AmigaOS, and programs made with -pack
run only on AROS AArch64. fabasic for Linux and Windows is a separate
program, not included here; the same .bas programs run on it unchanged.

This is an ALPHA release: the language may still change.
The hardware functions (GPIO, I2C, sensors, OLED) are experimental and
have not been fully tested - wrong wiring can damage the Pi or the
connected devices. Use them at your own risk.

HTTPS connections are encrypted, but the server certificate is not
verified.

Installation: unpack anywhere, double-click faedit, or run from the
Shell, e.g.
