Thanks for the comments. Fair points - it'd probably require some porting and a whole lot of adjustments to support the limited hardware specs. Anyway, it would be great to have the X16 run on free/libre software which is unlikely since parts of it had to be licensed, although I haven't found any info on what the license terms would be.

Hello everyone! I was just curious - since there has been some discussion over licensing BASIC and related stuff - why not use FreeBASIC (https://www.freebasic.net)? It's licensed under GNU General Public License and actively developed by the community. In contrast to any commercially licensed product, it has a great potential when it comes to community involvement. I might be missing something, but it really does seem like a perfect fit for the purpose - doesn't it? With best regards, Michael
