First of all, sorry for my english,

I need a BASIC compiler running on FREEBSD.

1) Can I use XBASIC ?
2) can I use GAMBAS in old fashion like;

10 INPUT a
20 LET b=a*2
30 PRINT B
40 END

3) some other suggentions?

Thanks.

FreeBSD has a Linux compatibility library, so XBasic should work.

Could also use qb2c, if you only need terminal apps. (Sorry, I don't
have a good link... Google is your friend.)

This page has list 61 compilers, most of which are Windows-only but
quite a few *nix compilers, too:

(As for the Gambas question, I would suggest either installing it and
trying out what you want to do, or else emailing the developers and
asking them.)

I've got my own interpreter that was modeled after DECs BASIC PLus.
Some things not quite complete like the SYS() calls, and I think (trying
to rember how this worked) that DIM values could start at 0, or 1, and I
think that was configurable. The interpreter is pretty solid I think.

If you're interested in it, let me know. I can send you some sample
code of what it can parse and run.
