But even with that feature, projects written and shared from within ...| EndBASIC

You see, when I started this project over two years ago, I wrote a rudimentary interpreter for something that resembled BASIC and then launched EndBASIC 0.1. Since then, I have been piling onto those insufficient foundations by adding...| EndBASIC
