What is "Free Basic" and is there a link with "Quick Basic"?

FreeBASIC - as the name suggests - is a completely free, open-source, 32-bit BASIC compiler, with the syntax the most compatible possible with MS-QuickBASIC, that adds new features such as pointers, unsigned data types, inline-assembly and many others.

If you were thinking about learning quickbasic, think again! FreeBasic is a MUCH better choice in all ways!

The OHRRPGCE was originally written in QuickBasic, but now it has been ported to FreeBasic. We have dropped support for QuickBasic, and development continues entirely in FreeBasic.
