Where do you have your knowledge from that BASIC is *not* procedure oriented?
Do you only suggest it because it supports GOTO and GOSUB too? Even QBasic  
can handle procedures - as well as the old AmigaBASIC from MS.

The newer JBasic (from ImaraCorp - I believe) - for example - doesn't support  
GOTOs or GOSUBs any more!

Use it: _PB3.2 & PREP_ / _ASM & PREASM_
