Loading programs


Back to QBasic FAQ Main Page.

Simple program loading is available in QBasic. Almost any TEXT file can be loaded into the editor. (ASCII formatted text is of course, expected.) QBasic's editor also supports "edit" mode where the editor can be used to create text files.

To launch just the plain text editor, type either one of the following at the C:\> prompt:

C:\> edit
C:\> qbasic /e

Note: on Win9x machines, EDIT will actually invoke MS' newer DOS-like editor EDIT.EXE, Where the "/e" will force QB to be the editor.
