Yes, I know the project, I have readed about it in some vintage computer
sites.

Blassic is written in C++ and makes extensive use of the C++ standard
library, and then his memory usage is high. Then porting it to a machine
with limited memory will be probably difficult. Other than that, Blassic is
highly portable, only writting a version of the graphic functions will be
needed to compile it on a platform that has no an Xlib compatible graphics
system, supposed we can use a reasonably recent version of gcc.
