===Yab===

=== Flyab ===
A port of Yabasic to the [[Fltk]] toolkit called "Flyab" was under development. It would have been source-compatible with programs written in yab, a variant of Yabasic that enables graphical programs to be written using the [[BeOS]] [[API]]. After [[BeOS]] and its successor [[Magnussoft ZETA|ZETA]] finally were gone, the team members around yab for BeOS decided to move to Linux and therefore chose [[FLTK]] to implement the UI parts. Ports for Microsoft Windows, [[Mac OS X]], and Linux would have been possible. Flyab added the ability to Yabasic to create native graphical user interfaces on all supported platforms. Main difficulty was to fully implement the layout commands to FLTK, as used from the BeOS version. {{Citation needed|date=September 2011}} As of November 2008, the project appears to be halted.
