(Dallas, Texas) bought the DOS version and expanded it. Zedcor concentrated on the Apple Mac market and renamed it FutureBASIC. ZBasic was very fast, efficient and advanced, with BCD math precision up to 54 digits.
  • Zeus—Basic developed for Windows and Pocket PC by KRMicros (Kronos Robotics).

BASIC extensions

BASIC extensions (a.k.a. BASIC toolkits) extend a particular BASIC.

(Platforms: APCW = Amstrad PCW; A8 = Atari 8-bit family; C64 = Commodore 64; C128 = Commodore 128; Spec+3 = ZX Spectrum +3; VIC-20 = Commodore VIC-20)
