 Finally, the programmers in our
the country began to make smart games. Before-
evidence of this is the new
strategy game "LAST BATTLE".
 Actions in this gameoccur on
one of the unexplored planets
lacticians                           
 Once upon a time, before there
the first person stepped foot, this one
the planet was one of the bases of the powerful
social civilization, traces of which
you will see the swarm for yourself. But for this plan
no representatives of Syria landed
sa, and they want no matter what
to destroy planet Earth (again
something threatens us from space), but for
for their plans to come true
representatives of Sirius must capture
cover all bases on this long-forgotten
everyone who remembered her, the planet.   
 You have been given the task to prevent this
and destroy the representatives of Sirius.
And now the hordes of robots begin to...
create the sea, air and land of this
planets, so as not to give the opportunity
accomplishment of the insidious plans of the Sirians
(what a word!)                 
 The game can be played against both
pewter, and against another smart
a good (or not so good) strategist.      
 The game has an unknown editor

Field of Miracles is on air again!"           
                                    
 The field of miracles came from television screens
eyes on computer monitors SPESSY
thanks to Outland.           
 Game "FIELD OF WONDERS" by Outland
practically no different from the original
ginala.  There is also Leonid in this game
Yakubovich with an eternal smile, and no less
expressive faces of our residents
countries, good music and a lot of topics.
And the questions in this game are not easy.
kih!  This game has an editor
so that you can shine
in front of friends with the knowledge compiled
Topics by you. Before starting the game you can
select one of two hundred themes, and then
already play in Field of Miracles. In branded
version of the game has commercial breaks,
donkey sitting at a computer (not
worry, this is not about you) and a bunch
money.

 The program is intended for archiving
tion of programs on disk. It is archived
no (compresses and combines under one
name) files with any extension . B
differences from similar archivers
this one works on 48Kb machines too.    
 A real archiver has a very convenient
nal interface.  LZ-PASK program
supports four drives: A, B,
C and D.                             
 You can insert into the archived file
message (NOTE) in order to
understand when unzipping what it contains
this file. But the most important thing is that
this archiver has a very high level of
compression vein  For example SONG files
(Sound Tracker) LZ-PASK program
packs at 10%-20%. Archived
files receive the extension 'A'.

 As the authors write in their corporate description,
Notes to this system program:
"The purpose of writing this program
there was a creation for SPESSY fast,
convenient and visual disco program
new service. "and they succeeded.  
 The RDS V3.1 program has a convenient inter-
face, a sea of information about the disk. Sco-
The growth of disk work is impressive:
it is twice as much as at work
with FUT and HONEY COMMANDER.     
 The program supports all stan-
standard and non-standard types of disks.
On the screen you can constantly
monitor the state of the disc tracks.Pro-
gram can produce a bunch of actions
Viy with the disk set quite low
level  The program works like
128Kb machines, and on 48Kb (except
some actions).

 The SCREEN EDITOR program, as follows,
no out of hertitles, intended for
creating and editing pictures.
But this editor is very different
from ART STUDIO.                      
 In this editor you can create
create sprites with color, and then from
These sprites make a picture. In re-
daktor has the ability to download
regular screen file length 6912
Byte for cutting sprites from it
with color. In the editor you can-
take the size of the picture in familiar places.
When recording a picture to disk, there will be
record only what you re-
edited. Burning a picture to disk
produced without attributes. The most
large single screen size - 768
byte. When writing a picture to disk
It is not the state of the cells that is recorded;
early area, and sprite numbers.
In order to display an image on

"coefficient output" program.
