Maybe you will enjoy my father's first and only program.

Cute. Is this retrieved from a cassette, memory, or written down?

An ancient tape (from time of buying a Speccy +2, let's say 1986), which I shifted to +D floppy disk (at the time that I got that interface, 1994ish), and thus to an "MGT" file probably through the Z80 emulator, and then eventually I turned what I could into TZX files -- dear God, it's complicated, isn't it, like converting ciné film into Unity. One freaking polygon at a time.

(Speaking of which, the daddy also did a whole ton of ciné, which indeed went through the stages of VHS -> DVD -> digital. Don't think I can't share that though, because half of it had his mates in it. Maybe I'll find a ciné film forum when it's been long enough. There's a bunch of primitive "stop-motion" which must have been way harder than PRINT AT, CLS, but you know, you grow up with something...)
