Homestead Commodore member Glenn is looking for the full version of geoCom. Does anybody know where to obtain it?

Below is Glenn's original message --

"Has anyone ever heard of a programming language for GEOS called geoCom? It had a BASIC-like syntax and compiled down to machine code. It was a German product. The demo version is easy to find, but I'd like to get my hands on the full version if anyone can help."

Apparently it was made / distributed by the same person / group that made GeoDOS and GeoMegapatch. Here is the website. c64.webgrimm.de/

The GeoCom demo version is available for download.

P.S. On a different thread I posted looking for TopDesk128. The demo version is here also. But not the full version.

It seems like most of the really good c64/128 (actually, C= in general) tech was made in Germany back in the day.

I recently came across a website that documented the products that were made by a German company Scantronik; there were digitizers, scanners, genlocks, etc. Unfortunately, I cant find the link anymore to that site, but I was impressed! :-)

Breadbins are beautiful creatures when left as intended.

Possibly this was the website you visited.
