It tries to make programming as easy and accessible as possible. This makes &kturtle; suitable for teaching kids the basics of maths, geometry and... programming. The commands used to program are in the style of the &logo; programming language. The unique feature of &logo; is that the commands are often translated into the speaking language of the programmer.</para> - -<para ->&kturtle; is named after <quote ->the turtle</quote -> that plays a central role in the programming environment.

From then many versions of &logo; have been released. By 1980 &logo; was gaining momentum, with versions for MSX, Commodore, Atari, Apple II and IBM PC systems. These versions were mainly for educational purposes. LCSI released <application ->MacLogo</application -> in 1985 as a tool for professional programmers, but it never caught on.
