Yeah the parsing for some of the BASICs was weird at times. Some auto-capitalised terms whereas others would list that as a syntax error or some other error. Some even allowed you to abbreviate terms. Locomotive BASIC allowed you to use something like a question mark (I forget the exact punctuation but I think it was a question mark) in place of a PRINT command.
