This is the GPIB language interface for Microsoft BASICA, a DOS programming environment for creating 16-bit applications. Download the Basica.zip file (in the example.zip file, below). This file contains the declaration file DECL.BAS, the language interface file BIB.M, and some sample programs.
How to Use the Microsoft BASICA Language Interface:
Load your application program using the command LOAD. To give your program access to the BASICA language interface, merge the file, DECL.BAS, with your program by using the command MERGE. The command BLOAD in DECL.BAS is used to load the language interface BIB.M.
Example:
Load "yourapplicationprogramname
Merge "DECL.BAS
