BASIC is very basic. Clear Screen - CLS, Display data - PRINT "data" etc.
I'll have a look on the net for you.

iggybaseball said:well is it hard to program a bootloader? i am very interested with assembly programming but i am having trouble understanding the binary system. i know its ons an offs( 1 an 0) but i dont undertsand the equations. any help?
Have you considered writing in C#? It's the hot new language of tomorrow.....today! (i have been told).
kevmarks said:I guess there is nothing wrong with writing 8086 asm. For me it is just such big and complicated chip. Virtual Addressing, Protected mode. Ton's of registers and not t mention commands. I guess I am just old school these days. The 6800 chip is lean and mean. I think the commodore Amiga, and the Apple Mac are the only machines that used these chips. After doom was released, everything went 80386 mad.
If I where you, I would write the thing in C. Unix, windows, MacOs. Infract screw it. I would say that pretty much every os is wrote in C or C++. Just write the scheduling algorithms in asm. I assume you will be using round robin. It's a good alternative between high and low level. Have you considered writing in C#? It's the hot new language of tomorrow.....today! (i have been told).
iggybaseball said:would it be possible to program a simple os with c++ than assembly? if so which one would be easier. i want to look into building an os but which language would be easier. I know neither c++ or assembly but asm is ort of hard. if c++ would be harder i'll just stick with asm. any advice?
#include <stdio.h>
int main (void)
{
printf("Hello World")
}
Program Hello;
#include ( "stdlib.hhf" );
Begin Hello;
stdout.put ( "Hello World", nl);
End Hello'
