Gambas is the name of an object-oriented dialect of the BASIC programming language as well as the integrated development environment that accompanies it. Designed to run on Linux and other Unix-like computer operating systems, its name is a recursive acronym for ''Gambas Almost Means Basic''. Gambas is also the word for prawns in the Spanish and Portuguese language, from which the project's logos are derived. == History == Gambas was developed by the French programmer Benoît Minisini with its first release coming in 1999. Benoît had grown up with the BASIC language, and decided to make a free software development environment that could quickly and easily make programs with user interfaces.〔 The Gambas 1.x versions featured an interface made up of several different separate windows for forms and IDE dialogues in a similar fashion to the interface of the GIMP. It could also only develop applications using Qt and was more oriented towards the development of applications for KDE.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Gambas: A Fast Visual Basic for Linux )〕 The last release of the 1.x versions was Gambas 1.0.19. The first of the 2.x versions was released on January 2, 2008 after three to four years of development. It featured a major redesign of the interface, now with all forms and functions embedded in a single window, as well as some changes to the Gambas syntax, although for the most part code compatibility was kept. It featured major updates to existing Gambas components as well as the addition of some new ones, such as new components that could use GTK+ or SDL for drawing or utilize OpenGL acceleration. Gambas 2.x versions can load up and run Gambas 1.x projects, with occasional incompatibilities. The next major iteration of Gambas, the 3.x versions, was released on December 31, 2011.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Gambas 3.0 for BASIC with bug and security fixes )〕 Early benchmarks of the Gambas 3 development versions showed its Gambas scripting being significantly faster than Perl and Python equivalents.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Benchmarking )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gambas」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
