Open Source BASIC Interpreters for Mac

BASIC-256 is an easy to use version of BASIC designed to teach anybody how to program. A built-in graphics mode lets them draw pictures on screen in minutes, and a set of easy-to-follow tutorials introduce programming concepts through fun exercises, 2021-08-05 - Ubuntu and other LINUX users can install the latest version with snap: sudo snap --beta basic256

Agena is an easy-to-learn procedural programming language designed for science, scripting, and many other applications. Binaries are available for Windows, Linux, Solaris, OS/2, Mac OS X, Raspberry Pi and DOS.

X11-Basic is a dialect of the BASIC programming language with graphics capability that integrates features like shell scripting, cgi-Programming and full graphical visualisation into the easy to learn basic language on modern computers.

SmallBASIC is a fast and easy to learn BASIC language interpreter ideal for everyday calculations, scripts and prototypes.

nuBASIC is an implementation of an interpreter of the BASIC programming language and IDE. It has been designed mainly for educational purposes and it is suitable for simple games, educational or small business programs.

TBasic is an implementation of a minimalist BASIC (based on the Tiny Basic specification but with a few significant additions) in the C++ language. It was written for fun, as a project to create a functional language interpreter from scratch and to be potentially used as a lightweight scripting language (it can either be used as a classic command line BASIC interpreter or as a class that allows a C++ programs to load and run basic programs, register custom basic commands and interact with basic variables).

This is the windows version of XST Basic. Basic interpreter with C emitter written mostly in C. This also uses the irrlicht 3d library to make it much more capable than the DOS XST Basic 1. Enjoy,

Brandy is an interpreter for BBC Basic (or Basic V) that runs under a variety of operating systems. Basic V is the version of Basic supplied with desktop computers running RISC OS. These were originally made by Acorn Computers.

This is an interpreted programming language that is designed to teach young children the fundamentals of programming, hiding away from students the complex concepts of programming, such as parentheses, quotes, data types, arrays, while allowing them to understand the basic concepts of programming, and, move to a more advanced language. It also serves as an exapmle on how to create an interpreter with QBASIC. The interpreter is written in QBASIC, and is licensed under the GNU GPLv2. About the unixname: The "shortname" of the project was a typo, but it was too late when I actually realised it. Features that still need to be implemented: Boolean expressions (IF) (If I ever find a flexible way to implement them, because you can't parse user input to a boolean command in QBASIC, without using a dynamically changed BAS file, which is going to fail if using it compilled) The source code should be compiled with either QB64, QuickBASIC or freeBASIC (with the -lang qb switch enabled

JBasic is a traditional BASIC language intepreter written in Java for command line or embedded use. It supports conventional original DOS and MSBASIC syntax, plus some modern extensions for supporting threads, JDBC, etc. JBasic can be run directly from a shell.

A Javascript MSX-BASIC translator. Run simple MSX-BASIC code directly in the browser, or even embed MSX-BASIC programs on your website :)

Jumentum-SOC is a programming environment for NXP ARM microcontrollers. It turns your LPC2000 with ENC28J60-based ethernet or LPC1768/2368/2378 into an autonomous controller that is programmable through Ethernet using a BASIC-derived language.

Mouseth is a cross between the Mouse and Forth programming languages. The programs are compiled to a very compact, machine independant bytecode, which can then be run on its extremely small virtual machine.

C64 like basic in java (pure not emulated)

nbasic - bytecode compiler+vm for middle level programming language, like basic. nbs - small and fast C-coded object orientated basic (compiler+vm) for embeded applications. Purpose: scripting support for C/C++ project.
