 Posted: Jun 26th, 2007, 4:00am Post subject: [WIP] 99 Bottles of Beer v2.0 |
 |
|
Hello all,
I'm considering posting an update to the Run BASIC snippet I submitted to www.99-bottles-of-beer.net that uses the new and more advanced features of RB. Because RB is so early in its development, I'll probably put off submitting this until I'm pretty sure a feature is stable. Also, if any of you have suggestions on ways to improve on this version, I'm willing to bend.
Please excuse the lack of comments for the time being. I will add some later.
