I'll even send the code that is working in GWBASIC to you if you think you can get it working in QBasic. The 286 has all the old interpreters/compilers on it. I used QBasic to fix most of the typos in the code, but never could get the code to work in QBasic. (QBasic was the first interpreter I learned to program with -- I never did learn the old line-numbered BASIC). Once I fixed everything I could in QBasic, I fired up the program in GWBASIC and it runs fine. I don't have MS-XP/Vista/NT. I have MS-DOS 6.2, MS-Windows 3.1, MS-Windows95. I've been using GNU/Linux as my primary OS since 1996. My computer "museum" includes a 286,386,486, an old Pentium, a 586, and a 686. > > Thats why the original version of my tutorial useed > QBASIC as one of its languages.
