There is a book from the early/mid eighties, that is simply lists the vocabulary of the various dialects of BASIC in use then. IIRC, it was called _The BASIC Book_. It was written specifically for programmers to port software between the various systems that were available. Back then, all variants of basic used line numbers, and allowed GoTo. Today, several variants of BASIC don't use line number, and some variants don't have GoTo. jonathon -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy
