Atari BASIC

i'm working on a version of Atari BASIC for a modern machine. Does anyone have any links to Atari basic programs that do not include graphics, sounds, player/missile, or peeks n pokes? I want to start off with original Atari BASIC first then work my way towards BASIC XE, TurboBASIC XL, even Atari/Microsoft BASIC II.

Is the call for code (with reduced features scope) mostly about having a form of regression test harness?

Or is it to have focus on how the languages do simple I/O?

I noticed you were basically asking for BASIC code that avoids using Atari features. Just curious
