My intention here is just to keep things going. And it works.
I don't know any details. Just that PB Syntax may not be totaly dead like MANY expect.
About the Alpha Compiler ... i don't know the details.
At this point i think, that anything would be better then nothing.
Currently they loose customers because they have nothing in x64.

When can we Beta-Test your product, Brian?

 Hello Chris. If you like programming in SDK... consider it 99% complete. 

The work i am doing right now, is regarding stock code for automating some tasks like sorting parsing and stuff. I plan to keep adding features, i dont want to make it just a wrapper, but adding functionality not easily made in high level.

i have made fairly complex projects with it, and everything works fine. Im sure a big group of programmers will manage to find more issues than i have imy tests, but nothing that cant be fixed. :)

How are they going to sell a converter that uses an alpha compiler as the backend?

I understand the doubts Jose, but i ask you and everybody who reads.... just give it a chance once it comes out. :)

I didnt told Theo much because he didnt want to sign an NDA (and the little [incomplete] info i gave him already shared!! bad theo! bad theo! :D ), The truth is that i cant share all the exciting news (who likes to work for nothing or without a goal?) about it... just wait, it will be awesome. In the meantime just know that PluriBASIC is a pretty strong competitor, and that even though Oxygen is in the alpha stage, Charles works pretty hard in it as to attract me into developing on top of it.

  At this point i doubt there is something not possible... we have PB macros on steroids, CGI engine, multi platform, enhanced resources, complete file system... you name it.

There are still a couple big features missing, but I will get to them eventually. :)

Some Good NEWS at last .... Brian Alvarez is the savior for PB  as without a real PB 64 bit compiler how could PB inc sell their stuff?

similar to MS which takes over other products to kill it?

Brians Board / New "Powerbasic-like" (Syntax)...
Last post by Theo Gottwald - August 24, 2019, 06:02:17 PM
There are rumors that Brian is really far with a x64 Compiler that supports Power Basic like Syntax.
He told me that he offered the compiler to "PB.inc" to have it sold as Powerbasic x64 but they were nopt intertested.
Maybe there will finally be an PB x64 like compiler?

PS: I could not yet test it.
