Naaw...As I've been saying over & over...it should be Visual Asic. BASIC
minus the "Beginners'" leaves ASIC (All-purpose Symbolic Instriction Code),
which is what this is. It is recognizable as related to BASIC directly, but
it different enough <complete-enough/complex-enough/capable-enough...>, as
you recognized immediately, to have a discinct name.

Me like! Anyone with russian background would see why it's nice. Kinda like
a pet name.
