RIP PowerBasic

It seems the PowerBasic site is gone and the community run forum is all that remains. Even if the source was made public, Zale took how to compile it to the grave.

PowerBasic should make the BASIC freeware with no liability with its use.

The PowerBasic fan base should take on the ScriptBasic open source project that runs on everything and written in ANSI C. The only thing BASIC about ScriptBasic is the syntax. SB is a high level C presentation. CBASIC I wrote did the same with preprocessor defines.

Zlatko Vid is a forum troll. He destroyed the Retro BASIC forum and Charles's old OxygenBasic forum with his hateful personality. His toy interpreter is a joke.
