Anyone used XBasic or XBLite before?

[prujohn]

I've used XBasic for several projects and have been very impressed with the power and portability of it. There is a compiler and development environment for both Windows and Linux.

More recently though, I've begun to switch over to XBLite, mainly because XBasic isn't really being supported anymore (no one is improving the language). XBLite on the otherhand has a relatively active community (though not nearly as active when compared to VBforums... ;) ) and several folks who are continually working to improve the XBLite source.

The best thing IMO is, both languages are FREE and open source!

Cheers,

Looks alot like FreeBASIC: http://www.freebasic.net/
Otherwise, I would shake their hands for this project :p.

IMO, I would go with FreeBASIC than XBLite, but to each his own :).

I like XBLite better :)

GUI Designer for XBLIte just released. Allows developers to visually design win32 Windows and controls and then generates usable XBLite source code.
