Hi. Just curious, hows goin with SB today? Im honest, i dont use it much but i like how it gaves me the same vibes as GWBasic or QBasic back in days. Kind of shame if the story of SB has ended.

    There are lots of samples, books and YouTube videos about SB to help you learn. SB has not been updated for about 10 years, but it's website is still a live, and has about 30,000 request daily (as told by one of its maintainers). And the good new is that SB story has more to tell by Small Visual Basic, which I built on top of SB to provide a form designer, a small windows forms library, improved syntax and enhanced code editor. I am also working now on its debuggers. Small Visual Basic is installed with a full language reference pdf and a samples folder, so you can easily start using it. The goal of sVB is to work as a bridge between Small Basic and Visual Basic .NET, so, you the story can continue with a new programming adventure.
