    I don' think you can that. Unless you use a viritual machine. And that will be slow....but maybe anyone else have a better idea...

    You can run it under Wine, it runs pretty well I've heard (http://appdb.winehq.org/).

    Alternatively, look at HBasic or Gambas for a basic-like language for Linux that's native. It makes a good transition to C++
