If you just look at the wiki, you’d see the answer to most of these questions. ;)

Reading the entire Wiki once, and then at least once a year, is a good
idea. There's also a Random button, thanks to which I found the hilarious

Who done dat? Pete?

You need to use the QB64 wizard to obtain such results in your programs. Look it up in the wiki under, the Wonderful Wizard of Os.

Let Pete = Haha
