I know it's
mentioned just in passing and as an example of a Basic variant, but of the hundreds of
Basic language dialects out there that could have been cited, PureBasic happened to be mentioned as an example of a Basic dialect and it doesn't even register in the top 100 languages. A few other Basic variants are in the top 100. I thought that was pretty cool

Thanks for sharing
Would love to see more love around Purebasic.
I love the performance, the cross-platform, the IDE, license model and that it's still being maintained.
I wasn't even aware it existed until 2022. Found it accidentally by searching for some retro BASIC stuff....

It's pretty neat that they chose to name PureBasic as first non-Microsoft Basic programming language.
Cudos to Fred & team.
Just updated the
Basic language dialects Wikipedia webpage you mentioned to incorporate all the different platforms PureBasic compiles for, including the C compiler output.
The mention of native Apple silicon compilation will hopefully make [Mac] people jump onto PureBasic...
