OmniBasic is portable to Linux, OS/2, DOS, Win95/NT, OS-9, and OS-9000.

Computer Design Lab announces the availability of OmniBasic version 1.27. This
release includes a number of new features including SELECT/CASE, CONTINUE,
RANDOMIZE, and comprehensive XForms support for the Linux version. In addition
to its unrivaled portability, OmniBasic has shown itself to be the one to beat
in recent benchmark tests for speed and efficiency. There are also many
changes which accommodate the QB/PB style syntax making conversion much easier.
The shareware versions are available for download from:

OmniBasic is a structured dialect of Basic which includes such features as
true pointers, based variables, macros, C compatibility at the function as
well as the linker levels, and a host of other advanced features. Like many C
compilers, but unlike other Basic compilers, OmniBasic was written in itself.
This is to say that the source code for OmniBasic... is OmniBasic.
