There's a package around called Xbasic which claims to be pretty good.
It runs on windoze and LInux. I downloaded it once to look at, but since
I'm not a BASIC expert and didn't really feel like putting much effort
into it I didn't get very far.
i might be able to scare up a URL if anyone else needs but can't find it.
