All About FreeBasic Documentation

[adosorken]

Nah, by hell-ride job, I mean hell-ride job. We travel the island a lot, and working during Xmas is a real pain in the ass because WalMart and KayBee are both stuffed with boneheaded imbeciles. (We represent a company in Rochester NY called Legends, who handles stuff like Pokémon and Yu-Gi-Oh cards, so we go around restocking their supplies, and we always get first dibs on new stock, such as the new Yu-Gi-Oh Dark Beginning 1. Rhiannon has become a Yu-Gi-Oh addict, her new nickname is "Yugiwhore". :lol: )

Anyways, we only have one job to pull off tomorrow (a WalMart supercenter in Manati [about 30 minutes away], two 4-foot sections, should take an hour, tops), but other than that, I'm looking at a couple of days of free time, so that should be enough to crank out some more headers.

Didn't anyone tell rhia that success in those games relies entirely on having the deeper voice?

If you're ever losing, just make up new rules, but say them in a deep voice and you win!

Good god, the manga was SO much better.

Is there any documentation stuff ready to read? I look for docs that I could try to translate to german. On sourceforge I didn´t find anything, I was thinking, something would be available....

Eric, well, nyuh . If enough people hate xml I can switch to latex later.

Hey Nexinarus...if you're reading this...do you need a proofreader? I'll volunteer.

@Jofers
Thanks for the link, by accident I had found it before and downloaded all the finished stuff.

@all

I am not sure about that point, so i ask,

if a beginner learns freebasic, so would it be ok, just to learn using a QBasic or QuickBasic Tutorial? I mean just the use of keywords and the synthax? Not what is said about the use of the compiler itself.
In the freebasic announcement it says,

you don't have to learn anything new if you already know any MS-BASIC variant

If I understand that right, we should already have lots of tutorials (having in mind these few differences mentioned on the freebasic website under "Differences")"
Would be nice to understand that clearly, as I think there are lots of tutorials available for QBasic and QuickBasic.
I have to ask, because on the other hand it´s said, that code for QBasic might run. Is that said because of those few differences?

Maybe this question sounds a bit stupid, when it comes to basic I am...

I think that the formula is:

Code:

freeBASIC = QuickBasic + {fB additions} - {MSDOS hacks}
