I think I learned more here about using QB64 with Windows API through adding libraries than I ever would have learned by sticking with the sheep herders of Microsoft. I have a lot of fun with my SCREEN 0 bits, but I really loved the Windows GUI presentations. Now PowerBASIC did a really good job of making a language that could pull off some pretty neat Windows effects, but the language surly wasn't "BASIC." PowerBASIC for DOS was an excellent BASIC language but QB64 is better and was worth the wait.

+1 for your post. Oh, not concerning your comments about BASIC, about cats. I love cats too!

- Cats have 9-lives and eat cat food. I have one life and eat my wife's cooking. That puts the odds of my cats outliving me at about 900:1.
