One of the program
routines which caused most interest appeared in Issue 6 in the game
Scramble. It was a simple means of re-running a program on SYSTEM RESET.
The routine shown would not work on the XL models but the following
routine will.
10
POKE 2,52:POKE 3,185:POKE 9,2:TRAP 1000
20
GRAPHICS 18:POSITION 1,5:? #6;"press system reset"
30
GOTO 30
1000
RUN
A
more sophisticated SYSTEM RESET routine is given here. Unfortunately
this will not work on the XL models. If anyone can come up with a fix,
please let us know.
Cassette users should change
lines 30 and 300 as follows.
30
I=ADR(R$):H=INT(I/256):L=I-H*256:POKE 9,2:POKE 2,L:POKE 3,H:POKE
842,12:GRAPHICS 0
300
POKE 9,0:POKE 2,0:POKE 3,0:? "NOW PRESS THE SYSTEM RESET
BUTTON":END
Keep those prying eyes out
of your programs!
