Thoroughbred Basic (http://www.tbred.com) is a dialect of Business Basic
along the lines of MAI's Open Basic, Basis' BBx and Best's ProvideX.  It's
nothing like any of the Pick style Basics, although there are a few vague
similarities.  It is interpreted (no p-code) and file I/O is drastically
different from the MV model.  It has its own ISAM/B-Tree style file system,
which is generally not readable outside of the Thoroughbred runtime
environment, except through their ODBC/Dataserver environment.

We support a number of Business Basic installations, including a few that
are still on Thoroughbred (although we've migrated most of the former
Thoroughbred installations to other platforms).
