Click on "Apple IIgs" on the menu on the left.  Then on
"ORCA Programming Languages" from the list then
click on "GSoft Basic".  This will take you to another
page then click on "GSoft BASIC the free version"

It is a modern lineless BASIC for the IIgs which runs
in GS/OS.  You will need 1.25 meg of RAM but it is
a pretty cool language.  It reminds me of Quick Basic
for the Mac.
