DESCRIPTION

16       Gambas is a free development environment based on a  Basic  interpreter
17       with object extensions,
18       a mix of Java(tm) and Visual Basic(tm).
19       With  Gambas,  you can quickly design your program GUI, access MySQL or
20       PostgreSQL databases,
21       pilot KDE applications with DCOP, translate your program into many lan‐
22       guages, and so on...
23
24       gbs3 is the interpreter that allows you to compile and execute a Gambas
25       script.
26       gbs3 may also be used to convert a gambas project to a script
