My DOS hobby coding project - the Costa GUI
It is coded entirely using VBDOS, but doesn't make use of any of the forms functionality. I think it would be fairly easy to get it running using QB 7.1 - I mainly used VBDOS because I liked the improved IDE it offers. The code is available freely on GitHub, and I have a website for Costa where the full version can be downloaded. I also keep a small blog on the website with news about development, should anyone be interested.

Is it possible to create a Sierpinski Triangle with Fortran?
The answer to 2) is more complicated, because in any language writing graphics is more complicated, because the hardware changes. The way you did it in Turbo C would not work today in Windows 11 (at least, not easily), nut as u/Uncle-Rufus says, you just need the right library, for example gtk-fortran. Here's Fortran code to create a Sierpinski Triangle in a PNG image file using that library, doing it to screen will be a little, but not much, more complicated.
What are some alternatives?
