The only version of the Microsoft BASIC Compiler we have added to the project so far is v5.36, a 1984 release from our private disk collection. It is not an original distribution disk, and it contains a number of unrelated files, including sample files from a demo version of BetterBASIC, a competing product from Summit Software Technology, Inc.
See the IBM BASIC Compiler, which was also produced by Microsoft.
