Draw It +3 Mod

BITS 'N' BOBS


[Draw It! +3 modification by M Eastwood & K Bostock]





As promised (ages ago), the Draw It covertape correction, to let you


use that snazzy old program on a +3. Firstly, enter +3 BASIC, and type


LOAD "t:" to select the tape device, and then MERGE "DRAWIT" to load


the first BASIC chunk. Now change line 1 to CLEAR 24660: LOAD "DRAWN"


SCREEN$: INK 8: PAPER 8: PRINT AT 19,0;"+3 DISK": LOAD "DRAWCODE" CODE


<Enter>. Type SAVE "a:" to select the internal drive device, and save


the BASIC to disk using SAVE "DISK" LINE 1. Now type NEW, enter +3


BASIC again and RUN the modification program. And thanks to Marc


Eastwood and K Bostock, you now have a working disk version of Draw


It! And in response to your questions, Marc: No, I don't have a spare


copy of Dizzy's Excellent Adventures to give away, and no, I'm afraid


I can't stand Public Enemy.





Back to more important matters - the first SAM program to be printed


in Pitstop for ages (issue 80's SAM Embroidery) didn't work! Sorry


about that - what you need to do is alter lines 80 and 90 so that they


read:


80 PLOT 0,173: DRAW n,-173


90 PLOT 255,173: DRAW -n,-173


and it should work perfectly.
