HUXLEY  I've been aware of Chipmonk Basic for years, but I've only just started really playing with it. As a computer geek whose programming skills began and ended with the Apple IIe, Chipmonk Basic is a wonderful (re)introduction to the art. Plus, given the range of Macs it will run on (1980's-era vintage gear through today's Intel powerhouses), anyone with a Mac can play with it. This is a great example of what makes Mac shareware so much fun! My only suggestion would be to possibly bundle in some example files with the software.  (Version 3.6.4b5)

LENA  because i have started on a selfmade Apple ][e with Applesoft Basic in the early 80' im realy happy that i have found this app. You can start immediately using most of the known comands.

Perfect for q&d sollutions!

TUISHIMI  The GUI tool works very nicely and it reminds me of VAX BASIC from the good old days.

However...

The first universal release command line tool worked fine for me, but the subsequent releases complain that:

dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.6.dylib

Referenced from: /usr/bin/basic

Reason: image not found

Trace/BPT trap

Indicating that maybe my X11 is out of synch or the developer's machine is different.  (Version 3.6.3b1)

ANONYMOUS  As a previous Apple II Basic fan, I've loved this program for years. Around the year 2000, I was a admin for the now defunct xoom.com. I used Chipmunk Basic to scour the logs for TOS offenders, generate clickable hot links to these sites and automatically delete them, if desired.

The program enabled me to delete more TOS offenders than 8 other people added up that were attempting this chore manually.

My job was generally over in 10 mins and they had to work all day. Thanks again.   (Version 3.6.1)
