QB successors

[Deleter]

hmm, not to be a noncomformist but I think language has nothing to do with the IDE. I never used qbasics IDE except for the compile function and anything necessary to access all my subs and stuff. I would just as soon code in notepad if the tabs would be persistent. The real important thing is the logic, and for that matter any language with significant features and optimization and intuitive enough syntax is good enough for me. I don't think your abstract mind should be so tied to the ide and language you are using...
