Most BASIC distributions did't save state and it didn't have an online help, meaning it wasn't on the system. So, if a user was going to have to look up commands then they were more likely do so through another program, necessitating have BASIC not in the ROM but on the filesystem. This way a user could still use BASIC and load/edit the program from a file on a floppy. |
