Does anyone have any experience with `True BASIC' for the Mac?

I use True BASIC at work on an AT&T 6300 and like it quite a lot.
I must admit, it is the first compiled BASIC I have had extensive
experience with.  The authors claim the language is very transportable
among different computers.  What I really want to know is whether I
can take a program listing from the 6300 and run it on my Mac with minimal
modifications, assuming it doesn't hook into the operating system, etc.
Any impressions at all you might have about this language on the Mac would 
be useful.

If anyone wants a summary of replies, let me know.
