We have HP BASIC 4.0 and are running it on a HP310.  I am interested in
knowing if there is a newer ver. of HP BASIC out there that will run on 
the 310 (I assume that there is)?  Please don't suggest something that runs
only under unix, I love unix, but the 310 doesn't, granted it can run unix
but it is severly underpowered to seriously run unix.

I am hoping that a newer version of HP BASIC will allow me to put multiple
statements on one line, this is very important to me, HP BASIC 4.0 won't 
let me do this (at least I can't figure out how to do it). 

Also I would like to know if I can get a version of HP BASIC that will run on 
the 310 and on an PC type machine?  I am very interested in being able to run
the program that I write and develop on the 310 on MS-DOS based PC's and
I do not want to buy a hardware card to be able to make theses PC's run 
my basic programs, I wan't a software solution only.  

Heck as long as I am giving out my whish list I might well ask for one more 
thing,  I would like to be able to compile my programs on my PC's.

Thanx in advance.
