Leveraging the lesson browser

Liberty BASIC has a cool feature that many people don't take advantage of.  It's called the lesson browser.  It allows you to create a collection of different programs in a single file arranged in an outline fashion along with comments for each program.

This is great for:
  1. Creating lessons (yeah)
  2. Sharing ideas with others
  3. Grouping related programs in a project
  4. Tracking the evolution of a program (a kind of versioning)
Here is a screenshot of the lesson browser in action.  It is used to provide a tutorial and also example of new features of Liberty BASIC, but it can be used by users to create any collection of programs along with documentation.
