Spectrum Computing

I remember there was a way to stop BREAK SPACE, so there should be a way to stop CAPS right?

Follow up question, how about a POKE TO DISCONNECT THE CAPS KEY?

Hi forum, how are you today? I have meant to ask this for a while but to be honest I forgot. So in my review after a while of the system adresses i have checked the address 23606 Now if you do say a POKE 23606,4 you will see it rolls up the letters a bit. To make it fun I just make it roll like this...

You can download the whole suite from my website, although I only use Blockeditor, Editor and Paintbrush: http://www.alessandrogrussu.it/zx/ZX-Assembler_0.8_Setup.zip http://www.alessandrogrussu.it/zx/ZX-Blockeditor_Setup.zip http://www.alessandrogrussu.it/zx/ZX-Editor_Setup.zip http://www.alessand...

If you are working with a snapshot, you could just use any emulator with a debugger. Switch the display from binary to text and you'll see your texts. With tape images, just like others, I would recommend Zx Blockeditor. It'll deal with the checksum for you, while any random editor probably won't O...

For this task, I use ZX-Blockeditor. Just double-click on the code block you want to modify, select "ASC" in the drop-down menu. Then you can scroll through the code and modify each character by double-clicking on it. https://i.postimg.cc/c4BQ8MyX/ZX-Blockeditor.png Do you have the best /...

Hi to all I was thinking to just for fun change a few of the texts in old games and programs with a PC Program without damaging the integrity of the program. I used DiskX in the AMiga, where it read sectors of the 3 1.2 disk and presented clear text found in the middle of the programming. Do we have...

When your post gains a life of its own. So beautiful

Oh i kmow PLAY and I know i cannot use it except in 128k. Saving space is great because i tend to just keep creating things and run out of memory. I just need to know how i can string the two variables of beep in it. I ll check it out and revert if i cant figure out the code. Many thx.

Hi to all Been seeing in some test programs the usage of BEEP VAL "xyz" in more or less the same way the Poke Usr Data is normally used, you do BEEP VAL and then between brackets insert a continuous string. I have not found any good sources around this (guess it was another thing only know...

Zx udg edit in android for on themov,
8 bit painter in android
And basinc in windoes

just one question, it takes how much, 1k? I am always struggling for memory

I will use them, dont have time to write one of my own at the moment

Hi to all

Just tested and it works trhank you very much for all your help, you will be credited of course on any TAP I make.
Just one thing, when I decide to actually draw 768 bytes of my own, do I SAVE "" CODE 64000 or 64000,768? I'm assuming 64000,768

best regards

It's quite easy: In your favorite emulator, insert a tape containing fonts. For instance file "ZX-ALFA(Fonts).tzx.zip" from here . Type this program: 10 CLEAR 63999 20 LOAD ""CODE 64000 30 POKE 23607,249 40 PRINT "OK!" Execute this program above typing "RUN" ...

1. Not really, not unless you 'write' directly to the new font location to 'build' it live. A bit like that character thickener routine that's been used in a few bits of Basic. Not unless you change it in the ROM that is. :D 2. As high as sensibly possible really just before the UDG's if you are us...

Hi to all This will be my first programming post on this forum :) Please note I just started a little bit of programming learning and in my concept I am reducing myself only to BASIC, no Assembler. So I'm creating a "game" to test where my knowledge goes at the moment. Appologies if it is ...

Hi to all, greetings from sunny Portugal

Decided to join this forum as I believe this is the best we have with new stuff, other forums are slowly dying out.

Hope to learn with everyone here and maybe I can actually help with something

Best regards and see you all around
