How about a BASIC that uses Labels instead of line numbers, and actual names for variables - some of the statements are different, for example instead of ‘Input’ labelbasic uses ‘ask’ (Each statment begins with a unique letter)

yeah, that elevator pitch is BASIC as we’ve known it for 25 years. it has some other neat QOL features though like the C-style string printing
I use BWBasic as well - but this has source code so I can modify it.
