              Hello!

  It's only been three weeks, and before you
the second number "Optron! Not bad. Even
I did not expect from myself, as editor and encoder, such pryti.

  Very specific reaction caused the word
"Annals" of the first issue. Make no mistake: the annals - page 
chronicle. In other words, the phrase "annals of history" 
means, too, as simply "the pages of history."


  It is possible that someone first issue appeared slightly 
(and perhaps not a little, and very) chaotic: little specific 
data of the authors and the like. In this issue

we will try to fix it - appeared in the newspaper page ABOUT, 
go into that You can hit "U".


  There are nekotrye innovations in the shell.
The text has now become a multi-colored, in a 128-m
mode menus available for selection
particular article. Unfortunately, users of 48-Speccy precluded 
from doing so - this is due to the fact that all the codes, 
texts, music is not intermeddle in 48K. The easiest way was

would be discarding the 48-th regime, as it did in ZxNews or Zx
Format'e. But I can not, and simply not
I have the moral right, deprive someone
of users.

  Recently, some members of the group was
raised an interesting thought: the newspaper must
intro and some music.
My opinion let it stay with me, but
ordinary users are obliged to speak on this matter. It's not 
hard to do - As long as you write on the market next issue

newspapers, you can UPDF to convey all the necessary 
information. 

  That's what was said and Walker'om
Gendalf'om about the new bells and whistles:

  "... Do intruha in the newspaper and several Mouzon? - 
'What's the matter?" - You ask. Of course you need, especially 
if a good one. No, not so simple as it seems at first sight. 
This is the intro and Mouzon will eat a lot of extra sectors. 
And yet You basically will build upon a newspaper

as supplements to the disk, instead of hundreds of extra
sectors that and so would have remained empty. Well, if PCP 
will take 200, 300, ... sectors, then you will have to abandon

128'oy excellent game. Will you go to such extremes, for our 
(Editor's note: hope in the near future and your) favorite 
newspaper? I would like to believe. In any case, in every (or 
almost every) new issue will be again the new bells and 
whistles. But from your view depends on how and when they 
arise. Even these simple tips you give us tremendous help. 
Let's try to make sure that it was not 'our' in the sense of 
the group, and 'our' in the sense of the city of Lviv, the 
newspaper. " 

  As mentioned! Indeed newspaper should
become our own, Lviv!

  As the first issue of the second consists of materials 
prepared by the members of our group, but we are waiting for 
materials from you, dear readers. Tell us about yourself, your 
ZX-life, if you live in Lviv, then Tell us about the ZX-life in 
your city. I think things will interest many of our readers. I 
know that outside of Lviv a set of fairly good programmers and 
zhelezyachnikov - we are waiting for materials from them. May 
soon hit the newspaper on the Internet, and what it means, I 
think no need to explain. 

  Now, how to contact us.
