David Ahl's Basic Computer Games Ported to C
SMRTR summary
David Ahl's classic BASIC Computer Games books have been ported from GW-BASIC to C, making these vintage programs available on Linux, Windows, and FreeDOS. The conversion was done using AI, so the code hasn't been fully tested or debugged — which the creator frames as a learning opportunity. Original BASIC code is kept alongside the C versions for easy comparison.
