- igravious 10y agoOh my God. That takes me waaay back. I had totally forgotten about that.
- bigger_cheese 10y agoMSDOS 5 used to come with QBASIC. Nibbles and Gorillas were great games and they included all the source code. I used to play Gorilla's all the time when I was a kid. That was how I learnt about angles. My Dad drew a picture for me "This is 90 degrees, This is 45 degrees" it used to sit beside the computer. I learnt a lot about programming from the DOS environment come to think of it. Our home PC used to have a text based menu program it would boot into. In order to add a program to the menu you needed to edit it, using something like a markup language. My Dad used to sit over my shoulder and talk me through adding programs to the menu.
