A related firm has an application, written in BASIC and running on a Wang computer system. They want to port their application to a Sun SPARCstation. Questions: a. Has anyone ever done (something like) this before? b. Which BASIC was used on the Sun? (To my knowledge, Sun has no 'unbundled BASIC' in their product line.) Also, if you know of the existence of a BASIC for the Sun, please let me know. Please don't start discussions like: "Don't use BASIC.", because the choice is beyond me, and besides it is perhaps cheaper to port an existing application (that has been running perfectly for years now) than to rewrite it from scratch in another language. -- Gertjan van Oosten, gertjan@westc.uucp OR mcsun!hp4nl!westc!gertjan -- West Consulting bv, Phoenixstraat 49, 2611 AL Delft, The Netherlands -- P.O.
