Silly Pattern Thingy

PATTERNS


by Rick O'Neill





Doesn't sound very exciting, does it? But, believe me, it is. The


first clue to its excitingness is that it's been written by Rick


O'Neill, a chap who's provided recent Pitstops with some of their most


genuinely exciting programs, including last month's Distorted


Scroller. But to find out more I think you'll have to type it in and


see what happens.





The procedure is simple enough. You need to type in the Basic section


and save it onto a tape. Follow this with the hex section, typed in


using the Hex Loader (full instructions last month). Specify the start


address as 33024 and the filename as "PATERN_C". Then save the code


that's generated after the Basic bit, reload the whole lot and bingo.





Rick actually sent a couple of extra programs on his tape which he


suggested I used in preference to this one. The first, an Address


Book, was jolly good but a bit long. You may just see it in a future


Pitstop when I've got more room. And the second was a bit crap.
