GW-BASIC
GW-BASIC was a dialect of
BASIC
developed by
Microsoft
from
BASICA
, originally for
Compaq
.It is compatible with Microsoft/
IBM
BASICA
, but was disk based and did not require the resources of the
ROM
included on IBM's machines. It was bundled with
MS-DOS
operating systems
on
IBM PC compatibles
by Microsoft. Like other early microcomputer versions of BASIC, GW-BASIC lacked many of the structures needed for
structured programming
such as local variables, and GW-BASIC programs executed relatively slowly, due to the fact that it was an
interpreted programming language
. It did have a large number of
graphics
commands.
