[nfbcs] first programs?

[Jude DaShiell]

Mono will probably compile and run all of that code.  Search for mono 
basic to find it if interested.  It doesn't provide an integrated 
development environment for programming, you run your code through a 
batch file once you have the necessary parts on your system.  I wrote an 
iching program with it but wrote it for console output since I can't use 
a mouse jaws doesn't support use of a mouse and I have fine motor 
deficit.
