Line numbers or line labels are used in QBasic as references to code lines. Numbers are required with GOTO and numbers or label names are required with GOSUB. Although not required in QBasic, other older programming languages such as GW Basic often required them. Line labels require a colon after them to differentiate them from keywords and variable names.
The following program can remove line numbers where they are not required by IF...THEN, GOTO, GOSUB, ERL, RUN or RESUME:
CLS REDIM linenumber(100000) PRINT "This Program removes unnecessary line numbers.": PRINT INPUT "Name of file: ", filename$: PRINT OPEN filename$ FOR INPUT AS #1 DO UNTIL EOF(1) LINE INPUT #1, a$ REM Get rid of quotes and REM statements. DO IF INSTR(a$, CHR$(34)) <> 0 THEN IF INSTR(INSTR(a$, CHR$(34)) + 1, a$, CHR$(34)) = 0 THEN EXIT DO: REM Mismatched quotes. Illegal code. a$ = MID$(a$, 1, INSTR(a$, CHR$(34)) - 1) + MID$(a$, INSTR(INSTR(a$, CHR$(34)) + 1, a$, CHR$(34)) + 1) ELSE EXIT DO END IF LOOP IF INSTR(UCASE$(a$), "REM ") <> 0 THEN a$ = MID$(a$, 1, INSTR(UCASE$(a$), "REM ")) IF INSTR(UCASE$(a$), "' ") <> 0 THEN a$ = MID$(a$, 1, INSTR(a$, "' ")) DO flag = 0 REM Break down compound statements and get line numbers.
