one alternative is:
			UX SOFTWARE INC.
			10 ST. MARY STREET
			TORONTO, ONTARIO
			CANADA,  M4Y 1P9
			1-416-964-6909

evaluation:
	this basic is definitly workable, but a little awkward.
	I personally don't like the file i/o modes,
	only because i'm used to mbasic (copyright microsoft)

	once you become familiar with it, I don't think anyone
	could complain too much about its versatility.

	We at SCI have reason to believe that a BASIC compiler for the 
AT&T 3B2 and 3B5 machines exists (since we wrote one for a third-party
subcontractor to AT&T).  It will accept BASIC code written for the IBM 
1.0 BASIC compiler, without graphics, sound, and IBM-PC-specific commands. 
Last we heard, it had passed acceptance tests;  but we don't know if AT&T 
is offering it as a product.  DISCLAIMER:  SCI does not have the right to 
distribute this compiler, so we can't send you a copy.  Sorry.
