  I think BBC BASIC had "renumber", which when executed changed all those "10,11,12,13" commands to "10,20,30,40", updating the gotos as it went along

  I am not a savage who would use anything beside Turbo Basic.

  Oh those were the joyful days...

    Level I BASIC predates Turbo Basic by a a dozen years.

      I know... I am not as old as a lot of people here but I was lucky enough to encounter it before the real deal, and use to write something on 486.

  I KNOW the BASIC on Multics had that in 1973. I am not aware of a BASIC that didn't (I was writing BASIC and Fortran professionally on Multics in 1973).
