Hmm... This reminds me of my big qbasic project that I did ages ago... It was a user account system for DOS that gave people home directories and custom autoexec.bat-type stuff. It was an ugly kludge of a qbasic program and a bunch of BAT files, but it worked...

I think I'll whip together a little quide to the various implementations of DOS that are still around and serve as reasons for people to keep using classic QuickBASIC.

The packager is sweet, but the malloc clone is kind of blah... I mean, I use BASIC so I can avoid C-like manipulation of low-level memory structures... I suppose that it can be useful, but BASIC is nice in that you can also program around that sort of thing.

Does the BAS output run in Qbasic / compile in QuickBASIC or does it only work in FreeBASIC?
