 ====== Giga-BASIC ======
This is a set of machine code tools and utilities for programming in Sinclair SuperBASIC published by [[qlwiki:ABC Elektronic]] and [[qlwiki:Gigasoft]].


The additional commands include sprite handling and real windowing handling commands, with the ability to add pulldown menus to your own programs.  The program also included a full screen editor for SuperBasic, which was able to check a typed line via the interpreter for correct syntax (like ED in SuperToolkit 2).


This was first released in November 1985, and sold as a package with the [[qlwiki:Giga Soft Mouse]].


Thanks to the two authors, and the QL Software preservation project, this program has now been released as freeware.
