Without getting into the fact the MD-BASIC programs run under Applesoft, you are completely forgetting Micol Advanced BASIC, the powerful BASIC language system (in two distinct versions, one for the GS, another for the IIe/c) which rivals any other compiler on the Apple II line. And what also makes Micol Advanced BASIC even better for Apple II users is that it builds on Applesoft knowledge in an easy to use environment. C and Pascal under APW is not easy to learn, and requires the people who have spent years with Applesoft to throw all their knowledge away. If you have any questions about Micol Advanced BASIC, please mail me. Ron UUCP: bkj386!pnet91!ronl INET: ronl@pnet91.cts.com
