operator+: if I followed your suggestion, I would be shipping 45 files instead of one file.
Why do you get so excited when someone has a different opinion than you have?
Must the world all be like you? Is that all that is acceptable?

Re: Are line label pointers possible?
I second marcov's statement.
GOTO is crucial for exiting a complex series of tests and statements without trying to write or keep track of a bunch of unwinding code or levels of nesting.

Re: Not compiling hello.bas on Debian 11
While fbc may run and show that it executes, if you didn't try to compile something, it didn't need to find files required to link against.

Re: Are line label pointers possible?
My point about line labels, GOTO, and other poor form are that these are simply someones opionion of style. Teaching something does not make it correct. We wouldn't have Einstien or Linux if that were true. No one would have found the 'New World.' We wouldn't have reusable booster rockets because it...

Re: Are line label pointers possible?
Line labels stem from a time when GOTO and GOSUB were the main control flow statements. Their usage shouldn't be encouraged anymore. The only legit case I can think of is the RESTORE statement to maintain compatibility with DATA blocks. [Highlight added by me.] Your lack of creativity should not be...

I suspect it was permissions. We need to hear from OP again.

Re: Garuda, another Arch-based distro on the rise
Also hurting Debian main is the *extremely* slow package acceptance policies.
Individual Deb distros try to pick the pace, but it isn't easy and requires too much effort, sometimes. Only the large Deb distros have a chance to persist.

Re: Linux Mint Install fails
OPs problem was that it didn't run at all.
Let's fix that before we worry about other issues.

Re: Linux Mint Install fails
/usr/local/bin is correct. A simple 'fbc' from a console there should work. Possible that permissions, etc are not correct. Happens from time-to-time. From a console in that directory: 'sudo chmod a+x fbc' should do it. If you don't get an options listing, then something didn't install correctly. da...

Re: FreeBASIC 1.09.0 Release
Yes, I did.
I may have addressed the libtinfo problem. I don't remember. That is a long-standing, well-known recurring issue. I might have fixed it automatically on install.
I did NOT have a libfbrt0.o message, for sure.
Path problem?

It worked fine for me, no mods or extra care, on Manjaro. Passed my tiny test suite.
