This is limited X graphics that works very nicely for function graphing and anything pixels. From LxTerminal start BASIC with the command basic, then enter the graphics 0 command to display the graphics canvas. The misc directory contains the xfonts-base set. The xfonts-base package is the main one (contains the 6x10 fount needed by BASIC). anyway, there are several important font packages missing from the Raspberry PI Raspbian image, which results in the error message for Chipmunk BASIC when running the 'graphics 0' command: Hi folks, sorry to take so long in getting back on this (took a while to track down, then I misplaced my note!).

I really think its time to open this up with a GPLv3 license (of equiv) before one or both of us grows old and dies! Maybe even give it to the Raspberry PI foundation for ownership and maintenance (and be immortally brilliant ! ). PPS Ron, I know you've heard this from me before. This addition to the Raspberry PI is splendid (even brilliant) and a big fat round of applause for Ron!

PS I have been using Ron's BASIC on my computers (going back to the first MACs) and I am using his codes on all of my gnu/linux boxes (even my 64 bit ones) with great success as both an educational tool, and for personal pleasure (non commercial). there are students all over the globe Ron who would benefit with one more way to talk to the RPi !

Obviously, what is needed from an educational standpoint is some special blocks of BASIC code to simplify Raspberry PI coding in the area of i2c, spi, and gpio. how did you know? I was all set to send off a letter to you asking for a port.

Thank you so much! I have Chipmunk BASIC running on my RPi b+ now, will test some tomorrow on my RPi 2B my b+ is headless so I can't try the graphics yet pumped about that!
