QBasic

This is QBasic code written from 1993 to 1997 by Ingo Ruhnke grumbel@gmail.com.

Note: This is a raw directory dump and hasn't been cleaned up much, so it may still contain code by third parties.

Running on Linux

A copy of QBasic can be found at:

• http://www.qbasic.net/en/qbasic-downloads/compiler/qbasic-interpreter.htm

Download and unzip that into the c:/ directory.

DOSBox is required as well.

Once both of those are installed, the QBasic programs can be launched with the run.py script, e.g.:

./run.py src/LABY4.BAS

Or just:

./run.py

which will display a list with all the programs.

Keybindings

• F5: start a QBasic program
• Ctrl-ScrollLock: Interrupt a running QBasic program
• Ctrl-F10: escape DOSBox's mouse-grab
• Ctrl-F11: lower emulation speed
• Ctrl-F12: increase emulation speed

Some programs require a joystick.
