Hmmm... you're right... I'd never actually dobule-clicked on it... just 
opened it by typing QBASIC at a DOS prompt.
Despite the window reading "Microsoft QuickBasic", it isn't the compiled 
Basic that was marketed under that name (up to 1988)... but instead seems 
to be functionally equivalent to the other versions of QBASIC included with 
MSDOS versions from 5.0 to 6.22.
