Re: LOCL

In my experience you need an application like QBASIC (the old compiler
and editer for MS-DOS) to be able to run basic source files... I think I
recall a compiler which could make an executable file out of them, but I
believe you had to pay for it (heh). I'm not quite sure how one would go
about acquiring the necessary tools to execute a .bas file in this day
and age, however.
