start in = C:\Users\Brian On the documentation: I never saw the part about the .INI file being the place where the mount command was set. I tried to read as much as I needed to in order to get started, but there was no way I was going to read all of it. There's just so much there, and most of it does not apply to my limited needs. You've done a huge job and I am grateful that you have made this available, so no problems from my end. Since I lost the use of Visual Basic a few years ago when I had...

Rob, I installed from here: https://robhagemans.github.io/pcbasic/ I have PC_BASIC 1.2.14 installed.

I do not think that is made clear enough in the documentation, but I am not a programmer and perhaps I am a little dense in these kind of things....

Hi, new to all this. I need to parse some text and no longer have access to Visual Basic 5.0. (dating myself). I can't seem to get the OPEN command to find my file, no matter how I type in the path. Right now the default path is C:\Program Files (x86)\PC-BASIC-1.2\pcbasic, which is where Windows installed the program. How can I get pcbasic to recognize my path to C:\Basic? Thanks, Brian
