Microsoft Basic

(language)(MS-BASIC) A dialect of BASIC from Microsoft,originally developed by Bill Gates in a garage back in theCP/M days. It was originally known as GWBasic, then QBASICand finally MS-BASIC.

When the MS-DOS operating system came out, it incorporatedthe GWBASIC.EXE or BASICA.EXE interpreters. GWBASIC ("GeeWhiz") incorporated graphics and a screen editor and wascompatible with earlier BASICs.

QBASIC was more sophisticated. Version 4.5 had a full screeneditor, debugger and compiler. The compiler could alsoproduce executable files but to run these a utility program(BRUN44.EXE) had to be present. Thus source code could bekept private.

From DOS 5.0 or 6.0 onward, MS-BASIC was standard.

Latest version: 1.1, also produces stand-alone executablesand can display graphics.
