When i read about purebasic i thought it is compatible (at least a big part
of it) too QuickBasic with itÂ´s syntaxes. But when i type in the famous
hello world program (print "Hello World") nothing happens except an
error message. Is there anywhere a tutorial for purebasic ?

There's the PB doc, and an example for each command in the PB disrib.
There's also an online doc here :
http://www.purebasic.com/documentation/index.html

For the "print" command that normal as QB uses a dos console and PB uses Windows.

The "hello world" in PB is like this:

InitWindow(0)
If OpenWindow(0, 400, 400, 200,100, #PB_Window_SystemMenu ,"Simple program")
drawingoutput(windowid())
locate(20,20):drawtext("Hello World")
stopdrawing()

Repeat
ev.l=WaitWindowEvent()
Until ev.l=#PB_EventCloseWindow
EndIf
Read the PB doc, and you'll see it's not difficult at all to use it.
And if you've problems, fell free to ask here...

Hum, this one is bit hard for a beginner. Try this one Ralf:

MessageRequester("Info", "hello World", 0)

Bye,

Sorry, Ralf and Fred, it's true, i've not been very simple
I would be careful with my examples in the future...

Thanks a lot FRED and Mr. SKUNK!

So PureBasic has not much in common with QBASIC, i guess.
