1. THE JANUARY ZX81 PROGRAM

zx81ab · Mon, 02 Jan 2006 15:11

Bonjour,

    For the beginning of the new year, I am proposing to you a 
program for the artist in you. It is titled "ARTIST".

    This program will run correctly on a basic Timex-Sinclair 1000 
because it requires only 2 KB of memory.

    It allows you to draw in eight (8) directions: Up, right, down, 
left, up-right, up-left, down-right and down-left.

    With the function PEN OFF you can erase one dot at a time. With 
the function ERASE you will erase the whole picture. Included also is 
the function PRINTER which will send a copy of the screen to the 
printer (the ZX81 or TS 1000 printer). So this function might not 
work with an emulator.

   Matt Barber has a web site where you can vote for the best 
programs of the ZX81 or the Sinclair Timex  T/S1000. So...Start the 
year 2006, the 25th year of the ZX81, by voting on the (or some of 
my) program(s) you like best.  You will find Matt's web site 
at:   "http://www.honneamise.u-net.com/zx81/index.html". Some of my 
programs should be worthy of some votes...I guess...I hope.

  From the 10th to the 12th of March 2006 in Fulda, Germany will be 
held the annual MICROFAIR for the Sinclair ZX81. Every ZX81 and 
T/S1000 users are invited. This year marks the 15 years of existence 
of the ZX-TEAM, the 10th year of the MICROFAIR, my 2 years of monthly 
releasing of new UNBELIEVEABLE programs and...Mostly the 25 years of 
the ZX81.

    Be there when my "ALIEN MIND" will be revealed, a new concept in 
brain game. It features: (1) 30 levels to solve. (2) Better graphics. 
(3) Better animation. (4) The set-up time in the SLOW mode is faster 
than the previous games using the FAST mode to set-up. (5) Automatic 
detection of level completed (no need to go to the HELP-END sequence 
to access the next level). (6) All that within only 16KB of memory 
and written with the Sinclair basic.

Happy New Year,  ANDRE***
