tcbasic implements a small subset of BASIC known as Tiny BASIC
with added support for floating point numbers and many of the
built-in mathematical functions in Dartmouth BASIC. It supports
basic I/O, flow control, subroutines, and debug tracing.
The small size of the language make it easy to learn and master
while providing all of the building blocks needed to develop many
interesting programs. tcbasic runs on a variety of platforms and
aims to be as portable as possible.
===> The following configuration options are available for tcbasic-2.3.0:
EXAMPLES=on: Build and/or install examples
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
lang/tcbasic: Update to 2.3.0

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

tcbasic implements a small subset of BASIC known as Tiny BASIC.
It provides the following statements and commands: INPUT, PRINT,
LET, GOTO, GOSUB, RETURN, IF, END, CLEAR, LIST, and RUN. Integer
arithmetic is supported, and strings may be PRINTed. A built-in
RND(n) function provides random numbers.
The small size of the language make it easy to learn and master
while providing all of the building blocks needed to develop many
interesting programs. tcbasic runs on a variety of platforms and
aims to be as portable as possible.
