Years ago, there was a web site where you could run the 235 version of BASIC on an emulator. It seems it has been languishing for a while, which seems disconcerting. I have occasionally tried to get in touch with various Dartmouth people, but in vain so far. Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 07:34, 11 January 2024 (CET)

Nice. The 235 corrisponds to the GS-235 at Dartmouth. A bit before HP Basic, which I have known and loved for years.

I think there needs to be an Ad-hoc rule, that if you put a link up for anything, and there is a DEC version of it, a DEC version should either follow or be put up first.

They are only for the 235 though. Where is the 635 version? Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 19:51, 11 January 2024 (CET)
