My opinion is that it is a terrible idea. For starters, how do you plan to install the runtime libraries, using sudo apt-get or distribute the libraries as as part of the plugin? And once you've decided that, how many hours will users on slow connections have to wait while umpteen megabytes of support libraries are downloaded and installed? > If there is a Gambas web browser plugin then the Gambas will be the > first Basic language that can be run everywhere due to browser > (firefox) and will have not limited only to Linux.

No. The hard work is going to be convincing you that it simply is not going to work. At all. > So tell is it a good idea? No, it is not a good idea. > Is it possible something like that?
