I definately must jump in here and point out that Micol Advanced BASIC is
designed to be the choice for Applesoft programs on the GS.  We've made it
extremely easy to use for Applesoft programmers, and have added capabilities
to use many GS specific features (sound, graphics, mouse) without any
knowledge of the toolbox.  Many of our happiest customers are ex-TML BASIC
users and ex-AC/BASIC users who have come over to Micol Advanced BASIC GS out
of frustratation, and have been pleasantly surprised by what they have found.
Of course, we still offer a full toolbox interface which allows you the
greatest flexibility.

We sell tonnes of these to schools who want to teach structured programming on
the Apple II, without scaring kids off by dumping them straight into Pascal
where they have to learn 100 new concepts before they can do a HELLO WORLD.

We've got a networked discussion going about Micol Advanced BASIC.  If you
(our your proline site) would like to be part of the discussion, send a
