Add Freebasic language - Githubissues

MyTDT-Mysoft commented 4 years ago

Please complete the following information about the language:

The following are optional, but will help us add the language:

Test Frameworks: closest i know: https://github.com/jayrm/fbcunit
How to install: on windows it would be just extract & run... but since freebasic is made in freebasic on linux you need binary or bootstrap https://www.freebasic.net/wiki/CompilerInstalling
How to compile/run: i assume x86-64 version will be used and that at current state generates C code to be compiled by gcc (gas64 backend is in progress) fbc file.bas where file would just need print "Hello World"
Any comments: (e.g., what's interesting about this language) its a mix of C/C++ (pointers/classes/etc..) with basic syntax, easy to use with C libraries, can generate c code for cross compiling can be compiled without requiring freebasic runtime... to me is the only low level BASIC dialect that worth to be used for real :)

:+1: reaction might help to get this request prioritized.
