I quite like that basic. Anyhow, google came up with a qbasic IDE for linux. I didn't follow it through though so i carn't really say much about it. Don't mean anything negative here but, why do 'vb' when you can have 'C'. jm Append: Just noticed the July dates on the posts above. I'm a bit late

C can be a bit harsh to people who just want to test out some programming languages, as they often prefer *basic. Also, I think that big_k works as a VB programmer so maybe it would be very handy?
