   1 z$=" the magazine, but the letters   on tape are the best of all,    because we can share them with  the other readers. Our usual    bribe of ten C15's (which as    you know are longer running     than C5's) has not attracted    enough letters, so we're going  to up the ante to 15 quid cash  for every reader's letter that  we publish. Over to you.":

Send   the survey card, your letters,  or software contributions to-        'Spectrum Computing'            Argus Press Software            Liberty House                   222 Regent Street               London W1R 7DB":
   1 z$=" You may have noticed the POKEs  in line 3 in Wizard Prang's     bit in this issue (if you don't look at the listings then you   are missing half the magazine). These transfer the address in   the NXTLIN variable, which      points to the location of the   line following line 3, to the   VARS variable, which points to  the end of the program.":
   1 z$=" Yesterday we received a nappy,  one of those cosy disposable    ones with elastic legholes.     Today another arrived, sent on  from our old address. As I do   not use them myself, I gave     them to an unmarried mother of  my(quite innocent)aquaintance.  But why are we being favoured   with such gifts, and who is     our anonymous benefactor?":
   1 z$=" Wizard Prang's Headache Mantra":
   1 z$=" Well, I do know who, but 'why'  escapes me. There is only one   software house that sends PR    handouts to both our old and    new addresses (not counting     that other load of wallies at   Argus), and that is Mikro-Gen.  Emblazoned on the nappies was   the legend 'There's a big one   coming your way!'. Message      received, take cover everyone.":
   1 z$=" We also need to know what you   think about the magazine as it  enters its third year, so we    want you to fill in our survey. There's a bribe for that, too.  Six free subscriptions will be  lavished on the first cards to  be drawn from Wizard Prang's    battered hat. The survey is     last program on side two. What  do YOU think of us so far?":
   1 z$=" Un-important bugs are those     that effect only the formatting of text, like the CHR$ 9 and    CHR$ 8 errors. These are cursor control characters for cursor   right and left (backspace).     The first doesn't work at all,  and the second fails when you   try to backspace from screen    line 1 to line 0, and worse if  you try it from line 0 to -1!.":
   1 z$=" This trick can be performed in  reverse too, to remove all of   a program above a given line.   To do this, you poke the PROG   variable, which points to the   beginning of the program, with  NXTLIN, then STOP. This removes everything up to and including  the line that does the POKEs.   It's actually still there, but  it will neither LIST nor SAVE.":
   1 z$=" This tells the BASIC that the   program ends after line 3. By   itself this would only cause    trouble, as there is no end of  program marker. There should    be a byte equal to 128 instead  of the next line number. This   detail is put right by the      CLEAR command following the     POKEs, which places the marker  in the location VARS points to.":
   1 z$=" The results of the survey will  definitely affect the future    course of 'Spectrum Computing'  so don't be left out. Prang is  so worried about his standing   that he has volunteered to let  readers drop bricks on his      head in an eccentric attempt    to court popularity. And our    resident hacker is tending to   the hangout in person for once,":
   1 z$=" The ones that are important     are the '-65536' bug, which     renders this number as -1 when  it figures in some types of     calculation (try to PRINT INT   -65536) and the division error  which causes the calculation of many fractions to be wrongly    rounded (try PRINT 1/2-.5).     These bugs can lead to puzzling and intractable mistakes.":
   1 z$=" The omission of the systems     variables from the new manual   issued with the Spectrum Plus   was a mistake, as they are the  most useful part of the larger  manual that came with the       original Spectrum. Those four   pages are thumbed grey in my    own copy, though much of the    rest remains unread. Many of    the mag's tricks require them.":
   1 z$=" The entertaining bug is the     'Scroll?' bug that reprints     the last direct command entered and then a string of garbage    including most of the Spectrum  keywords when you reply to      'Scroll?' by pressing both caps shift and symbol shift together twice and then pressing any     other key. Oddly enough this    doesn't seem to do any harm.":
   1 z$=" The Spectrum has been around a  long time now- ages in terms    of computer life expectancy.    One computer year is worth 3    dog years, which as you know    are worth seven human years.    That makes the Spectrum over    65, about time for the case to  turn grey. It's a spritely old  codger though, due to regular   games of 'Daley's Decathalon'.":
   1 z$=" The 'Spectrum Computing' post   bag hits this office like a     canister of nitrous oxide. PR   people are apparently quite     unable to understand what tape  magazines are all about. What   are we supposed to do with a    glossy black and white photo    of an Oric disk drive? Or a     tape of an Amstrad clone of     'Fred'? Hah? Hah! Hahahaha!":
   1 z$=" PIGGY IS LOADING - PLEASE WAIT"
   1 z$=" More esoteric are errors that   cause SCREEN$ and STR$ to store too many results, supplanting   any figure already stored and   about to be calculated with the result of the STR$ or SCREEN$   function. These bugs can lead   to mistakes that matter, but    they can be easily cured by     using the function to define a  variable, which can then be":
   1 z$=" If you use the CLOSE # command  without first opening the       stream you are about to close,  then you are likely to reset    the computer if you use a       stream number higher than 3.    As the OPEN # command is only   useful with microdrives, CLOSE  should be avoided on unexpanded machines. When microdrives are  fitted, this bug disappears.":
   1 z$=" If you had stored the original  PROG in a couple of variables   you could now POKE it back in   and get the 'deleted' part of   the program back. The only way  to really delete it and         reclaim the memory is to use    NEW, which will remove the      whole thing, of course, so this technique should only be used   to shorten a prog for saving.":
   1 z$=" For those with Pluses, here are the System variables addresses:    VARS    23627 and 23628         PROG    23635 and 23636         NXTLIN  23637 and 23638      Each requires two locations to  store a two byte address, but   you need not calculate the      decimal equivalent, just move   the two bytes from one place    to the other.":
   1 z$=" During this period, most of     the Spectrum's often charming   and entertaining bugs have      been extensively documented in  various books and magazines.    The Spectrum is not as badly    afflicted as its detracters     make out, however, and few of   the bugs actually have any      important effect on the working of a program. ":
   1 z$=" Any number above 62222 will     fail in this way if entered as  a direct command, and sometimes an even lower number will fail  within a program. There is of   course no reason to use so big  a number with RESTORE, but      care must be taken when select- ing DATA by computed RESTOREs   to ensure that this limit is    not exceeded accidentally.":
   1 z$=" Another lethal bug, which I     have not seen described before  elsewhere (can this be yet      another first?), is the RESTORE bug. RESTORE can be used alone  or with a line number, but the  ROM doesn't check that this     number is a legal line number.  If you RESTORE 65000 it will be accepted, but the computer will hang up looking for line 65000.":
   1 z$=" Amid the announcements from     Commodore, late invitations to  last week's press bashes, and   entertaining fiction from SRL,  there is always plenty of new   Spectrum software to review,    but what we are really looking  for is that occasional letter   from our readers. The paper     ones are a welcome feedback,    telling us what you want in":
