It's hard to tell what you are actually wishing for here.  A patch or
a merge request would help greatly.

It looks like the package description was last updated 15 years ago [1].
We could replace it with the current text from upstream's homepage [2]:

Yabasic is a traditional basic-interpreter. It comes with goto and
various loops and allows to define subroutines and libraries. It does
simple graphics and printing. Yabasic can call out to libraries
written in C and allows to create standalone programs. Yabasic runs
under Unix and Windows and has a comprehensive documentation; it is
small, simple, open-source and free.

Would this fulfil your wish? :)

Regards
Graham
