IBasic for Applications is a user-friendly programming language that can build various applications or utilities. It offers standalone Windows programs for versions 95 to XP.
One of the standout features of IBasic is its syntax that is similar to BASIC. It also comes with a built-in editor, debugger, GUI designer, and resource compiler. With over 300 built-in commands and functions, you won't need any external libraries or runtimes. Additionally, you get full MDI support with dynamic window, dialog, and control creation.
IBasic also supports structured data types, graphics primitives, random access and flat file I/O functions, and memory allocation functions. It can call external DLL's for unlimited extensibility. It also offers DirectX and Direct3D support, as well as common control support such as rich edit, list view, status controls, and toolbars.
With IBasic, you can also create web-enabled applications with embedded browser windows. The executables created will run on any Windows 32 bit system. For 2D game development, it offers easy-to-use commands for creating, hit testing, and moving sprites. Scrolling tile maps also make it easy to create unlimited fields of play using only a few small images.
If you prefer a physical copy, there is a boxed CD set available. It includes a full printed manual, CD with hundreds of examples, and thousands of royalty-free sprites and images. Overall, IBasic is an excellent choice for those who want to develop Windows applications and games with ease.
