Try many sample programs about fastbasic

I have read the article "Converting to Fastbasic" in the wiki. The process described is OK, however the process can be automated. I did this once, therefor I have written a little tool (in BASIC) which can convert ANSI BASIC (with line numbers and multiple commands in one line) to X11-Basic (or GFA-Basic) similar to fastbasic syntax. Maybe you want to have a look at it to write something similar. Bas2x11basic really has helped me converting some of the BASIC code of the ancient days... Here is it:

Could be possible to add support for line numbers to use turbo basic xl listings out-the-box ?

[kollokollo]

As far as I remember, TURBO BASIC XL did not require line numbers. (maybe they where optional). In GFA-Basic line numbers finally where not used anymore.

Of course, but many basic examples that you want to try online have line numbers, then requires some re-work to take them and try with fastbasic ex. http://atariprojects.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Page-Flipping.txt

I created a web page where you can try the included samples online:

When the emulator loads complete, you can try:
