GW-BASIC
Sign in to saveGW-BASIC is a dialect of the BASIC programming language developed by Microsoft from IBM BASICA. Functionally identical to BASICA, its BASIC interpreter is a fully self-contained executable and does not need the Cassette BASIC ROM found in the original. It was bundled with MS-DOS operating systems on IBM PC–compatibles by Microsoft.

GW-BASIC是高級程式設計語言BASIC的一個方言版本。這個版本的BASIC最早是微軟為康柏開發的,時間應該是在1984年,這一年11月,微軟首次為IBM之外的計算機廠商提供OEM版本的DOS,GW-BASIC是作為MS-DOS的一個組成部分問世的。 GW-BASIC在MS-DOS發行版本中,於1991年6月由微軟的QBasic所取代。應社群要求公開GW-BASIC原始碼,因此2020年5月22日微軟開源1983年2月10日的8088組合語言版本(體驗) (页面存档备份,存于互联网档案馆)。
