[comp.sys.ibm.pc] HBASIC for AT clone?

jackm@jpl-devvax.JPL.NASA.GOV (Jack Morrison) (03/14/89)

Here's one for you old-timers:

I have an application written for HBASIC, which runs on a real IBM PC
with a Hercules mono graphics card. I want to run it on an AT clone
with a VGA that has Hercules emulation. I know how to get the VGA card
into Hercules mode, but still can't run the program (HBASIC either
hangs or says "incorrect DOS version").

I believe that HBASIC is a program that modifies the True-Blue IBM
ROM BASIC to work with Hercules graphics, and of course the clone 
doesn't have BASIC in ROM. Is there a version of HBASIC (or an
equivalent product) that works with, say, generic Microsoft (GW)
disk BASIC?

Thanks for any info you can e-mail my way.
