I just used MMBasic for DOS to convert some files to another format.
It works reliable and (on this PC) is fast.
But.
Coming from PicoMite the DOS version (5.05) is miles behind. I constantly try to use commands from pico, that are not available in the DOS version. It is easy enough to work around it, but I realize I am truly spoiled with pico.

Anyway, MMBasic4DOS performed it's task on some huge excel files, and is highly valued. Especially since it came packed with MMEdit (that I used to develop the file convertor code).
