Great Cow BASIC Version 0.98.04 is released.

The Great Cow BASIC development team have published another release that further enhances the Great Cow BASIC compiler capabilities.

Great Cow BASIC has three main aims - to remove the need for repetitive assembly commands, to produce efficient code, and to make it easy to take code written for one chip type and run it on another. It hides many of the more confusing parts of microcontroller programming, making it suitable for beginners and those who do not like or wish to learn assembly language.
