Under StrongED a Python3 program outputs a calculation to 16 decimal
places. When an equivalent program is run in StrongED's BASIC mode
result is to 8 decimal places.

BASIC64 can be set in a TaskWindow but it looks like it defaults to
BASIC V when a BASIC program is run in StrongED. Is there a simply
way of ensuring BASIC64 is always run?
