    The tbas team is proud to tell you all that the new Beta version is ready.

    tbas is a lightweight console interpreter, that can deal with a lot of
    BASIC statements, structured programming and modern features.

    tbas is free, with sources and documentation. It needs only gcc to be
    compiled, and a Linux/UNIX machine to properly run. This Beta version is distributed also with Windows Binaries for 32bit and 64bit machines (to
    be run into a Prompt window).

    There are many improvements with respect to the Alpha Version, and its
    main innovation is the interactive session feature. Many bugs were found
    and solved and many new features were added.

    Try it out and let us know!

    You can find it here:

    The original team (Ian and me) was augmented by the addition of two
    important members: Tom and Bruce, who contributed a long series of
    tests, who bettered the general and particular behavior of tbas. All the members of this team have provided a long, consistent and invaluable
    help and I am extremely grateful to any of them.

    Good work! The interactive mode is great, very useful. And the
    documentation is excellent, as always.

    Any plan to make tbas run also on Android? I'm trying SmallBASIC to develop a text-console BASIC project on Debian, but which must run also on Android "as-is", using a ready-to-install Android application. It seems SmallBASIC is the only free and open-source option for that at the moment.
