Line 1: ~~[[category:~~{{implementation\|PowerBASIC]]}} '''PowerBASIC for DOS''' (a.k.a. '''PB/DOS''') is the [[DOS]] compiler for [[PowerBASIC]].▼ ▲'''PowerBASIC for DOS''' (a.k.a. '''PB/DOS''') is the [[DOS]] compiler for [[:Category:PowerBASIC\|PowerBASIC]]. ~~It's important to note that there are some fairly major language differences between PB/DOS and the [[PB/Win\|Windows]] versions.~~ Unlike the [[Windows]] versions of PowerBASIC, PB/DOS is very similar to [[QBasic]] and other, older [[Microsoft]] [[:Category:BASIC\|BASIC]]s, and PB/DOS can in fact compile most QBasic and [[:Category:GW-BASIC\|GW-BASIC]] programs unchanged. ([[PB/Win]] and [[PB/CC]] use a variation of BASIC that is somewhat similar to [[:Category:Visual Basic\|Visual Basic]].) ==See also== * [http://www.powerbasic.com/products/pbdos/ PB/DOS page at PowerBASIC.com]
