Gambas is the name of an object-oriented dialect of the BASIC programming language, as well as the integrated development environment that accompanies it.[5] Designed to run on Linux and other Unix-like computer operating systems,[6] its name is a recursive acronym for Gambas Almost Means Basic. Gambas is also the word for prawns in the Spanish, French, and Portuguese languages, from which the project's logos are derived.
