Show HN: Thoreau BASIC – What if BASIC hadn't gone out of fashion?

Thoreau BASIC is a modern reimagining of the classic BASIC programming language that adds 64-bit memory, graphics, networking, MIDI/audio playback, and native x64 JIT compilation while maintaining simple BASIC syntax. The latest 3.2 release includes new file browser and menu commands, improved floating-point and complex arithmetic, and can run as Windows programs, standalone EXE files, or directly from UEFI firmware without an operating system. Thoreau BASIC demonstrates that BASIC's straightforward command structure remains viable for modern programming tasks including sound, graphics, and multicore processing.
