Creative Basic

Creative Basic (CB) is a third-generation event-driven programming language for Windows, with an integrated development environment (IDE).

Current version executables are interpreted and require no runtime libraries be installed on the end-user's computer. A planned future version will have compiled executables.

Creative Basic has an extensive command set, and access to the application programming interface (API) libraries available in the Microsoft Windows operating system.

Although this modern version dates from 2007, it is a development from, and is completely compatible with IBasic, which has been in use worldwide since 2002.

Some notable projects are Jerry Muelver's WikiWriter, a WikiWriter to Chm Wizard by Alyce Watson, and Mike Rainey's manufacturing engineering programs. (see the Links below).

Famous quotes containing the words creative and/or basic:

    Nobody knows what the cause is,
    Though some pretend they do;
    It’s like some hidden assassin
    Waiting to strike at you.
    Childless women get it,
    And men when they retire;
    It’s as if there had to be some outlet
    For their foiled creative fire.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)

    Of course I lie to people. But I lie altruistically—for our mutual good. The lie is the basic building block of good manners. That may seem mildly shocking to a moralist—but then what isn’t?
    Quentin Crisp (b. 1908)
