Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Sorry, Newbie request.

I've looked through here for how folk with W10-64b are running MMBasic on DOS but haven't seen it mentioned. I know I need to use a 'virtual' DOS of some kind (vDOS?) but would appreciate any suggestions/recommendations as to what is best 'DOS' software to use when running MMBasic.

Regards,

IanT

The 'DOS' version of MMBasic is a Win32 console application so it runs happily under W10 32 or 64 bit.

It doesn't need any installation, just unzip and run it.

Thank you Jim - I seem to have a habit of making things harder than they need to be.
