English Amiga Board - View Single Post - F-Basic! Needed!

Hi,

I used to own an Amiga500, bought it pretty much when it came out in the 80's. What a great machine, but alas I know longer own it. In recent times have been wishing I still had an Amiga and therefore just bought an Amiga1200 off e-bay. I'm very Amiga rusty, having been trapped in the PC world for so long.

I've started to remember things I had on my A500 and remember having the F-Basic programming language. Not been able to find it anywhere and wondering if anybody has a copy they could turn into ADF disks? I remember I had version 5, which I think is the last version produced by the company Delphi Noetic systems. I also remember it produced very fast code, being a compiled language. It's possibly not as well known as the other languages, but was certainly very good. I would love to tinker with it again. I also tinkered with AMOS which I have as ADF images and can put on my real Ami.

Cheers,

Yarc
