This utility is written in BASIC and will produce a fully
justified 80 column printout of AMPLINEX text files.
To get going return to BASIC and enter
LOAD "U.print80"
ensure that the current drive (selected with *DRIVE)
contains the AMPLINEX disc and then RUN the program.
The first thing the program does is to catalogue the current
disc and to prompt you to enter the AMPLINEX issue number.
Here you have three options:
1) To enter the AMPLINEX Issue Number (e.g. 005)
2) To press <RETURN> which will assume the same issue
number as that last entered
3) To enter * (or anything beginning with a '*') to
catalogue the current disc.
Next you are prompted to enter an AMPLINEX text filename.
Here you can use the COPY and cursor keys to enter up to 31 filenames. Once you
have finished entering the filenames press <RETURN> to print them out.
Note: the program is designed to work with 80-column
printers. If your printer will print more characters than this you should force
it to finish at column 80 by setting a right margin via software commands (e.g.
VDU2,1,27,1,81,1,80,3 for Epson compatible printers).
