markmiller Posted June 12, 2023 Share Posted June 12, 2023 On the AtariWiki, I'm seeing a version called Turbo Basic 2.0, but no explanation of what it is, or how it's different from 1.5. I've tried it out, and the only difference I see is it has an integrated DOS. Is that the only difference, or are there added commands beyond what's in 1.5?

Sikor Posted June 12, 2023 Share Posted June 12, 2023 (edited) If I remember - works with all turbo casette system. No special features. Integrated DOS make DOS command available from casette (LOAD, SAVE with D letter in some systems). Edited June 12, 2023 by Sikor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baktra Posted June 12, 2023 Share Posted June 12, 2023 If we are speaking about TT-BASIC 2.0, where the initial banner says something like "Jiri Richter" or "JRC", then it is a special version to be used with the Czechoslovak Turbo 2000 turbo cassette system. This versions installs the T: SIO device, which allows reading or writing data using the Turbo 2000 - Kilobyte blocks file format. The DOS command displays a menu that allows to load/save/verify TB programs using the monolithic Turbo 2000 format. There are no new programming language commands indeed. I would avoid using this version, unless you are going to use it with a cassette recorder upgraded to the Czechoslovak Turbo 2000 system. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
