There is a basic called bbx.  This basic is extremely good!  It is a form
of Business Basic.(Business Basic eXtended).  The company that
developed it is out of Albukurcie(sp?) New Mexico.
This basic will run on almost platform.  (ie just about any version
of Unix, on Dos, on VMS, etc.)

If you are interested, I could lead to a scource of where to get it.
