I had not done that yet, but I will be happy to do so. Look for it
this week on our web site.

I'm not planning to release the compiled version from MediaBlender.
That compiler is written in Java. It would definitely not be easy to
port it back to the Apple IIGS.

This version has been licensed as a scripting language, though. If you
have a Java-based application that needs a BASIC scripting language,
get in touch. It's definitely not free, but I'd be happy to work with
anyone who wants to get it into their application.

And of course, if you have an iPhone or iPad, there is always
techBASIC.
