From   : soruk@... (Michael McConnell)
Subject: Announce: Brandy Basic - with teletext?!

Fast-forward a couple of months, and there have been a fair few fixes 
and new features - suffice it to say, if I were to post the changelog it 
would definitely be in TL;DR territory.

(We do have mouse support, a simple easy-to-use network interface, 
full-screen mode, much more flexible screen modes (especially when 
windowed), INKEY, convincing MODEs 3 and 6, multiple screen banks...)

... and a Videotex client written in BASIC as one of the examples.

And a git repository. https://github.com/stardot/MatrixBrandy (I 
slightly renamed it to show it's a fork and not David Daniels' 
original).  The website remains at http://brandy.matrixnetwork.co.uk/
