I am real excited about this. USB support and Gui suppoort.
This is the closest thing to QB I have found so far.

Looks great. A quad processor mobo would just about beat any
hard ware control stand alone computer.

3.16. Accessing USB devices X11-Basic has a builtin USB interface, which
allows X11-Basic programs to access USB-Devices, which are connected to
the computer.  The interface is on a near hardware level, so the driver for
the specific hardware connected must be written in X11-Basic. Hence, it is
well possible to use dataloggers and USB-to-RS232 adapters with this
methods.  In principle every USB-Device can be accessed, if the protocol for
data transfers and data interpretation is known.  Please see the example
program usb.bas for an example, how to readout data from a VOLTCRAFT
VDTL101-T data logger.  USB support is work in progress and may not yet work
on Android and WINDOWS.  USB-Devices are opened with the OPEN command.
Instead of a filename, a com- bination if PID/VID is used.  Once opened, the
commands CLOSE, IOCTL(), SEND and RECEIVE can be used

Two most often used graphic functions are implemented as a full functional
graphical user interface dialog: Message boxes and a file selector.
Arbitrary dialogs can be created with the object and resource functions.
Also a pull down menu function is implemented.

Here is the 657 page manual.

We can design a PWM board for a USB connection if there is
already not one out there now.
