I don't have a copy of the compiler for the 800 but only for the XL/XE. Does anyone else on the net have any info on an 800 version? I don't know anything about the copyright on any of this software. It was claimed to be Public Domain, but there is a copyright notice saying the program belongs to "Happy Computers". I have heard nothing about this from anywhere but the title screen. Has anyone heard anything to conflict with the Public Domain status of Turbo BASIC? -John Sangster / jhs@mitre-bedford.arpa

In a recent message, jhs asked about urbo Basic-800. This is what I know:
Turbo Basic-800 -does- exist. Unfortunately, it is not very widely
distributed, as opposed to Turbo Basic XL. The Happy Computer message
refers to the developers of the program --- all Turbo modules are totally P/D.
[By the way, I know a local Bulletin Board that has Turbo Basic 800, but
the SysOp -doesn't want- to put it up!! :-( ]
As for ARC and ARCX, all I can say is to try the Translator.
