Re: Sevenup internal file format
Hi Ralf, Sorry about the late response, I was on vacations. Here's a hurried translation of the format, as I documented it back in 2005, for the es.comp.sistemas.sinclair newsgroup ( https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/es.comp.sistemas.sinclair/sevenup$200.6$200.8%7Csort:date/es.comp.sistemas...

Re: The best classic Speccy game beginning with S: vote
Never expected more votes for Saboteur II than the original! It was me who gave it the 2nd vote, but it looks like the original voter has changed his mind. I guess he just didn't want the game to have no votes, and seeing another support for it, has decided to favor another non voted one. I can und...

Re: unsigned to ascii
There's a small optimization which saves 1 byte and 3 states for all solutions so far: 10/100 (and -10/-100, and -10+256/-100+256) have the same value for the high byte, so we can load only the lower byte for it. So, "ld e,-10" in my proposal, "ld e,10" in Bizzley's and "ld ...

Re: The best classic Speccy game beginning with S: discussion
There are already a huge bunch of good titles, but I'd add Starstrike II to the list. Probably also the first part, but that one was called 3D Starstrike, so I'm not sure if it belongs here on in another thread for 0-9. I would also add a Russian game called Star Inheritance ( https://spectrumcomput...

Re: unsigned to ascii
The requirement is to convert a number which I'm happy to restrict to the range 0-32767 into a 6 character string (including null terminator byte) with zeroes padding to the left. e.g. input of 320 would result in "00320\0". Speed is more important than code size at this point in time. Wh...
