I appreciate that Basic256 isn't designed for large programs, but something which supports modularity would be very welcome. It doesn't have to be sophisticated, just the ability to load previously written subroutines into the current program would be good enough.
Anyway, thanks for all your work on Basic256, it's awesome.

Basic-256 has the 'include' statement so that you can create libraries of subroutines. Chapter 10 of 'So You Want To Learn to Program' has explanation and sample.

Richard, I've only just started using the language and was using an older version of the book. I will be sure to read the updated version - thanks!
