What is PureBasic?
PureBasic is a native 32 bit and 64 bit programming language based on established BASIC rules. The key features of PureBasic are portability (Windows, Linux, macOS and AmigaOS are currently supported), the production of very fast and highly optimized executables and, of course, the very simple BASIC syntax. PureBasic has been created for the beginner and expert alike. We have put a lot of effort into its realization to produce a fast, reliable system friendly language.
In spite of its beginner-friendly syntax, the possibilities are endless with PureBasic's advanced features such as pointers, structures, procedures, dynamically linked lists and much more. Experienced coders will have no problem gaining access to any of the legal OS structures or API objects and PureBasic even allows inline ASM.

Comments and Reviews
One of my favorite compilers. Very efficient and reliable. The demo version can be used for free to develop small apps.
Small footprint native application target.
Only old version (4.0) of PureBasic is provided as free. File is compressed in rarely used format (lzx). It seem that it isn't really free.
The program is not free, but there is a free demo available. A single user license costs € 79, which is a fair price, as you can download the versions for all supported platforms (Amiga, Linux, Windows and MacOS X). And, once paid, all future upgrades are free.
