I'm currently working on a compiler for a BASIC-like language, which
could be expanded, with some work.  The program itself doesn't quite
work, but soon it will have support for for/next loops, assignments,
arithmatic, and basically everything but changing screen modes, direct
memory access, and strings.  If someone wants to help, let me know.
