how long before we port GW BASIC to Linux?

if it's on github, can we fork it with patches for Linux? keep it open source with all of the copyrights intact, but let us do GW BASIC on Linux, too?

I've always thought BASIC was a good learners programming lingo. We can keep it alive this way.

/me looks into this - 146 forks already!
