- Description:
-
- BlibII is basically in two parts, a Basic linker and a Basic library.
-
- The BlibII Linker - allows you to 'link' Basic programs with libraries of
- procedures and functions. This has several advantages: it creates a single
- Basic file which can be compressed or compiled, it is smaller as only the
- functions/procedures that are needed are included and it will run faster.
-
- The BlibII Library contains quite a collection of routines to provide the
- following: Dynamic memory allocation, menu construction, template file
- support, windows, events, icons and general OS stuff. The library is intended
- to be user-expandable.
