.. Version: 4.44 ..
.. STALL EDITION ..
[+] new, [!] fix, [*] changed, [-] thrown out
Differences between version 4.44 and 4.43 (12.01.02-24.06.02)
[!] INCBIN was not fatally buggywith files that are long, short,
256 bytes - #5cfХ was installed incorrectly (Sergius
Puzzler)
[+] Command EXA = EX AF,AF' (AlCo+Mey)
[!] ENDM at the beginning of the line did not cope with its responsibilities
(Sergius Puzzler)
[+] Now in all commands (where it makes sense) you can set
comma separated list of parameters:
LD A,B,C,D
POP HL,DE
JP C,#1234,#1234
and so on. (AlCo, Antipod)
[!] fix Hsearcher! Previously, in the found file in the descriptor,
the wrong track was poured (elph, dman)
[*] in the 42-character version the cursor has grown by 1 pixel (AlCo)
[!] the text change flag is indicated in the status line
[+] the last of the files of the same name (AlCo) is now loaded
[-] DEFM is no longer available.
[+] But there is DD!
DD#112233445566
equivalent
DB #11,#22,#33,#44,#55,#66
[+] in the config you can select the volume of beepa (0-off,1-min..4-max)
(Antipod)
[+] Using ext/l you can go to one of the marks of the current file (met-
ka should be the first and only one on the line) (AlCo)
[*] Run and Symbol commands now work only after successful
compilation
[!] after searching for a tag, only tags (AlCo) were replaced
[*] After compilation, information like:
Symbols:#0000 Post:#0000 Macro:#0000
[!] may have fixed a glitch with floppy drives (when selecting a floppy drive
I forcibly enter #83 into the corresponding emy cell in the ra-
yone#Scc8..#Sccb if it's not #1b)
[*] compilation speed is slightly increased (5-15%) due to opti-
options for accessing 64k marks (for example, I have the results of this
alasma compiles in v4.43 27 seconds, and in v4.44 21 seconds.)
Thus the compilation speed is again close to the speed
author's version 4.1)
[*] in the calculator, the binary value is separated by the symbol '_'
[+] in the editor: ext/U - Undo lines

| Buzz issue 20 |

Status: diskmag
Manufacturer: Placebo
Volume: 913 sec.
Two years have passed since the previous issue was published... Two
years is a long time. But don't let Placebo be who they are
the scene would have forgotten about Buzz. The reborn newspaper was clearly a success.
Frame engine combined with originalgiven the design
the opportunity for readers to comfortably accept what is presented to them
information about the scene and everything connected with it. Special attention
I would like to draw attention to the quality of the material presented: competent
articles, reports, interviews. So now it's hard to decide
What are we reading: a newspaper or perhaps a magazine?
Placebo are back with a shocking, devastating blow
over competitors, revealing to the world a completely transformed newspaper,
in the opinion of independent readers, capable of surpassing even Born
Dead! But we will not predict anything, we are looking forward to
Let's wait for the next issue!

Volume: 226 sec.
The first issue of the NetSpec newsletter. I think you
have already heard quite a lot about our community and in order to dispel everything
speculation and rumors - read this info, there is enough information here
comprehensive material. Yes, in my opinion, number one
it turned out very well, because I was very interested
read After all, it can turn out to be an excellent newspaper! But that's all to
Looker. By the way, a fixed version has been released, correctlyworking for
machines with memory more than 128 kB. This newsletter will be published on
where necessary, introducing the scene to our developments,
state of affairs and news from both NetSpec and other teams. And
Remember - first of all, the community is aimed at helping people. We
We do not impose ourselves, but we also do not refuse those who ask.
Well, are you not with us yet?

| ZX-CHART #3 |
-+--------------------------------+-
Status: chart
Manufacturer: JeeZ
Volume: 443 sec.
The long-awaited third charts from The Charts Team are here
(JeeZ and Demiurge Ash). The months-long wait was not justified
in vain - at least that title picture drawn by Gas 13...
Cool! Another advantageous difference between these charts and similar ones is
shares of other sceners is that you can not only
get acquainted with the results, but also read objective criticism
authors, which, you see, is also important. Unfortunately, the most
a serious mistake - a temporary difference in the questionnaires filled out.
Enough time has passed since the release of the 2nd version and the event
on stage quickly fell upon us. Someone
filled out the forms a long time ago, someone did it recently, in the end we
we have results that are partly combined from old and new
questionnaires and not containing the latest data. What did this lead to?
I don't think it's worth talking about.
Let's hope the next version of the charts doesn't take too long
for so long.

| PSYCHOZ issue 11 |
-+--------------------------------+-
Status: e-paper
Manufacturer: Triumph
Volume: 337 sec.
The 11th issue of the already beloved “single-item” Pseko.
As you might expect, Itzebog personifies the Camy Spectrum
essence, and the number exudes optimism, unlike everyone else out there
Heresy, depress'am and others like them. :) This number consists of three
parts and reading them is of course interesting. With the greatest
Out of curiosity, I became acquainted with the malicious discussion of the Dzerzhinskys
stagers, with letters from readers and all other articles.
The most remarkable thing is that Psychoz is now completely
stage publication, without being distracted bytopical topics. And,
you know what struck me most was the news. Got them
a person who (like me) does not have regular access to the Internet!
Let's hope we can find a coder who can
compile the new Psekos as needed and we will have a crappy newspaper
with a wide selection of articles. :-)
Good luck, Itsey!

| ZX View v0.2b |
-+--------------------------------+-
Status: PC system
Manufacturer: Brainwave
Volume: 81,920 bytes
Let me say right away that this software is powerful and irreplaceable in
collections of the Petseshny speculator. It was written by Megus'om from
Brainwave, thereby proving that musicians are much more
they know how to do something useful. :) A small excerpt from the author's description:
----------------------------------------------------------------
This program is designed to view files on PC
pictures taken from the Great and Mighty ZX-Spectrum... On
At the moment the program can do the following:
- Image scaling;
- On/Off Attributes;
- On/Off Flash bit;
- On/Off Bright bit;
- Picture inversion mode;
- Ability to redefine any of the standard colors;
- Autosave configuration inWindows registry for the current
username;
- Export pictures to BMP or JPG;
- Support for formats: SCR (with or without attributes); hobeta
(similar);
- Auto-detection of file format (by size for now, then I’ll do it
by content).
----------------------------------------------------------------
On my own behalf, I’ll add that although this is still a beta version, it’s its own
her work showed the true state of affairs. Guys! I erased everything
Viewers of Spectrum graphics on the PC! Why do I need them?
When is ZX View available? This is not flattery to the author - I, as a user
this utility, I share my impressions. Curious
additional screen display modes: bilinear filtering,
bicubic filtering, 50% interlace (and, of course, no resampling).
Moreover, with their help you can achieve such an image as
it looks on a real monitor or TV, to which
Spectrum connected.
I recommend!

| Body issue #3B |
-+--------------------------------+-
Status: e-paper
Manufacturer: Smokers team
Volume: 130 sec.
Oh, what, #3B already? Finally, Body started to appear
less borrowed jokes and verbal fluff, but that’s allmore
such a cool style expressed by creativity has strengthened
Wrecker and Necromancer. We see that the publication style remains unchanged
is saved. In this issue you can read the report c
Millennium'1902, the passions around which will never subside
what month, latest news, software review, something about women (a
of course!) and... Booze charts v40.1%! But I won't say much, but
then the result will not be Heresy, but some kind of craft like Optron...

Manufacturer: Roman Petrov+Himik's ZxZ
Volume: 35 sec.
Probably many thought that nothing was better than Hrust 1.3/2.1
Can't it be done on ZX? It turns out that it is possible! This packer
confirmation. Of course, I'm not saying that RIP is screwed
Hrust, but in some cases the data compression ratio is a bit
higher than Hrumer's packers. (read the latest Psychoz) That's all
depends on what data you are packing. There are also those who
Of course, Hrust presses much steeper. I can only advise coders
one thing is to use both and choose more among them
the best option. The RIP itself is still a Beta version, which hasa primitive shell, but for programs of this kind it is not
needed as such, but let's hope that over time RIP
will have a decent shell similar to Hrust 1.xx. Let's see
how this program will develop further.

| ZX-Time issue #9 |
-+--------------------------------+-
Status: e-paper
Manufacturer: Karlo Computer Softare
Volume: 462 sec.
The 9th issue of the excellently proven
ZX-Time newspapers, but, unfortunately, even under the emulator the number
refused to work. Perhaps Virtual TR-DOS has a broken
version? I don’t know. However, I didn’t manage to look at the newspaper. Although cama
intro y suits me (cool ay-voicemetrs on the border!), but
after clicking on Space bar intro is reset. But y Nik-O is on
KAU 256 doesn't even have an intro...
Guys! Next time, plz, embed before
installation of an intro survey on Space to skip and download it
the newspaper itself! Well, today I’ll try to download the newspaper co Scenergy
site.
