   View Screen is a program designed for such simple 
functions like viewing screens.  Some might argue that 
Why do you need a special program if you can just watch? 
pictures even from BASIC.  But if you have a whole disk of screens, 
it is almost impossible to quickly view them. And if you 
want to view fonts or advanced screens 
graphic resolution (512x240 for PROFI)...                
                                                                
                                                                
 Well, now, in order, about the whole program:                    
                                                                
  Control buttons:                                           
 Q,CapsShift/7 - up                                          
 A,CapsShift/b - down                                           
 Enter,0 -download and view file                            
 1..9 - viewing modes                                        
  '1'- Sp.scr. + attr - standard Spectrum screen             
       with Color attributes                                   
  '2'- Sp.scr. - standard SPECTRUM screen without Colors     
       tributes                                                 
  '3'- All screen - view screens in a row across the entire disk      
  '4'- Fonts - view fonts                                 
  '5'- All fonts - view fonts in a row across the entire disk       
                                                                
  The following modes only work on PROFI:                   
                                                                
  'b' - SR/M screen - black and white extended screen              
  '7'- All SR/M screen - viewing extended screens in a row    
       all over the disk                                           
  '8'- Sp.scr. -> SR/M - standard SPECTRUM screen on         
       extended screen                                       
  '9'- All screen - viewing SPECTRUM screens on extended   
       screen in a row across the entire disk                             
 V - view the downloaded file                                
 I - inventory of the SPECTRUM screen (attributes)                  
 U-SPECTRUM screen inventory (pixels)                   
 B - Installing black and white Spectrum Colors screen               
 S - recording to the SPECTRUM screen disk                             
 C - recording an extended screen to disk                         
 D - erasing a file from disk                                     
 T - change the type of displayed files                             
 SPACE - rereading the directory                                 
 CapsShift/1 - exit to TR-DOS                                   
                                                                
   When writing and deleting, the disk is checked for protection 
from recording.  FUNCTIONS for working with extended PROFI mode 
check the presence of an additional port.                        
   Attention!  Minimum configuration for the program to work: 
ZX Spectrum 128 and TR-DOS 5.04T (Perhaps View Screen will be 
work on other versions of TR-DOS, but on ZX Spectrum 48 
you won't even see a simple standard screen.)                  
   For full operation the program requires PROFI with any 
memory capacity (even 128 kilobytes will do).
