(M-x basic-m100-mode). If you don’t have BASIC mode already, you can install the package from MELPA or grab it from https://github.com/dykstrom/basic-mode . If you like, you can put a comment at the top of your code to hint to Emacs what mode to use: 10 REM -*- basic-m100 -*- Personally, I just set Emacs to automatically recognize the .DO file extension. (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.DO$" . basic-m100-mode)) —b9 P.S. Technically, the Model 100 does not run “MBASIC” as that refers to a specific product from Microsoft that was made for early DOS and CP/M machines. While they are similar it is not identical to the Model 100 BASIC.
