One has a first line for Linux - #!/usr/bin/perl/ - which points to the

It's better to use:
#!/usr/bin/env perl
because it's cross distro. Linux is supposed to be standard, but
different distro's put things in different locations.

Oh no! The apostrophe! How did it get there? :-(

not actually necessary,

I think QLiberator at least can compile without line numbers (never actually
tried that). Perhaps

Not quite the same. Yes- superBasic runs uncompiled but errors only
show when they
are encountered.
Python (and perl - my preference) compiles first, syntax errors show
then and it stops

I think, that wasn't the question. Don't confuse this with QLiberator's
option Line Numbers.
As far as I know, QLiberator does not need line numbers, but this is not
possible via the interpreter. It is in fact possible with the QD5 Thing to
compile source code without line numbers.

Yes, but always from a loaded SuperBASIC program... ;-)
Turbo compiles from the tokenised SuperBASIC program.

For this the TK2 commands FTEST and FTYP are used but these don't seem

Hmm, but the TK2 Manual states about OPEN_DIR, so, apart from Level 2, it
should be possible. But what kind of directory, if not Level 2? Perhaps just
the root one.

Some years back QLToday wrote about testing the machine you are using by
reading the sys_vars (PEEK (sv +167)).
The test on Q-emulator returns zero, as the standard QL, so this could be
used to assume there is no Level2 device.
This number is held in the 5 lowest bits, I believe 14, 15, 18 to 23,
Hi Derek,
Why get the source to Python and produce a specific version for Sbasic.
Because we can? I suppose we could, after all, we have C68 for QDOSMSQ
why not Python?
It would be a separate language though, not something to compile S*Basic.
I suppose we could produce sPython, which would
