materials various publications, so and various science fiction
stories, documentary materials and similar things,
capable of interest not the average newspaper reader...
Being an informal publication with a not very advanced external and
musical (for the time being - somewhere numbers up to 35)
design newspaper won recognition in widecircles

For publication - pretty good... No wonder the author rose

Newspaper turned out pretty well informative. In it
told as news, review system software and toys, but
There are also several quite interesting articles. By the way, in
review says about our project “And darkness came...”. Project
is dead, and by the way, this was not a demo, but the full first part
games. Who needs a solution, I can make it!
Told also new way connecting Hayes to speckie.

Newspaper from the city of St. Petersburg. In addition to all the usual sections
also described new system for compiling adventure games
like...
--- Plus one more thing:
Adventurer #12 - amazes with the amount of materials...

Now let's smoothly and quietly move on to the review of the software... Software,
IMHO, not as much as we would like, but still there. And very
even quite good.
+-------+
++---+ STD 3 +---++
+-------+
(c)EVG/STUDIO STALL
Let's start with our local. So, the first thing that immediately jumps out at you is
eyes -3.0 version of the well-known code debugger in narrow circles -
STD (Stealth Turbo Debugger). Its author is EVG/STUDIO
STALL. According to according to the author, the third version is radically different
from all previous versions because that it is console
debugger (rulezz and all that (ts) EVG) like softice on pC.
That that the days of STS are long gone, Quorum users felt
back two years ago, when the second version of this appeared
debugger. Now same (soon) and userscomputers with TRDOS will be able to use it.
For more information write to the author (500:3432/90@ZXNET,
Eugene Stahov, Pervouralsk).
+-----------------+
++-+ TrDos Navigator +-++
+-----------------+
(c)Stanislav Udin (500:4232/1)
Enough ZxNet has long been talking about the need to input a system
directories in TRDOS. Only a few people supported this idea,
the rest are ledwith the main ZxNet flamer Kiril Frolov
proudly declared that such a system is not needed...The author's idea was to make a convenient commander for working with HDDs,
becauseothers did not suit him. Laziness, as they say, is the driver
progress. Well, he created it. And there is still no support for the screw,
but there is support for directories in the system that does not conflict
with other commanders. You can read how it happened
in the author's description of the commander.
Now our opinion. Since this is not even a beta version, then
there there is nothing special to evaluate there. We can say that from the outside
design (typa text mode, 64 villages per line, blue screen)
it reminiscent, and completely at all not Dos Navigator, a
simple pop Norton. The interface is not yet finalized,
but, IMHO, there will be everything that is in ordinary commanders.
The general impression is pleasant, but it smells like writing.
+----------+
++-+ Extractor +-++
+----------+
(c)Alien Factory 2000.
A really necessary and useful program in all variants.
The point is that since it is customary on networks to transfer files to
unhealthy format of emulators, then it really should
beunpacker for all these formats. Nothing but hobets on
Speckies long were not observed. And finally it appears
this program.
Unpacks SCL, TRD, HOBETA, etc. formats.
+-------------------+
++-+ Pro Tracker 3.Sbf +-++
+-------------------+
(c)Golden Disk corp.
(c)SAGE group.
Latest version well-knownmusic editor for
AY. Differences from previous versions very few and all of them
minor except for one big minus, but more on that at the end.
Someglitches in the player have been corrected, FreqTables have been corrected,
it is possible playing muson on tempe 1. Very
quickly...
Now about the minus. Due to the fact that the module header says
bla-bla-bla ... Pro tracker 3.5 compilation of ... bla-bla-bla..
nor one music player (including the iconic best view) besidesthe most
advanced do not consider this module to be Mouzon! Here this and
stops muzakers from using it.
Evaluate it there is no point, because this is only only update
previous version!
+----------+
+ Hrip 1.2 +
+----------+
Archiver for creating self-extracting archives. Finally
thenunder tr-dos began appear programs that have long been
existed under other systems...
The program interface is a bit like a crunch...

From system software, let's move forward to games.
+------------------------+
---+ The Scorched Earth 2000 +---+------------------------+
(c) Brainwave 2000.
The game is an update games these same authors, made
much earlier. Game represents from yourself duel of pillboxes on
undulating ;))) terrain. Up to 8 players are supported, you can
buy weapons etc. IMHO, it is a conversion of the same name
games with PC.+---------------------+
---+ The Homer Simpson II +----
+---------------------+
(c)Mr. Gluck 2001.
Sensation!!! Continuation of the famous toy Homer Simpson I.
Came out... As you know, the main character of this game came to us from
American TV series. And now Simpson returns to us again
Russia.
The game is very reminiscent of the first part... In general, see for yourself!

6.Best View 2.10
Differences between version 2.10 and version 2.9
---------------------------------
[+] New
[-] Error fixed
[*] The error has been fixed and/or the program has been improved
[:] Any xapapaktepuctuka program has been degraded
[+] Quite powerful search tools have been implemented (call by
key `F`; `N` - repeated search with the same parameters):
search for a mark in assembly text, search for a sequence
characters, word search; you can specify, distinguish between uppercase
letters from lowercase or not; search word or sequence
The number of characters can be divided by one or more
translations; it is taken into account that the Russian letters `Н`, `р`, `у`
can be replaced in the source text with the corresponding
Latin letters. Since the `F` key is now enabled
for search, switching font when viewing MASM files
moved to the `M` key.
[+] Three-character file extensions are supported.
[+] Made a quick selection of drive using keys 1-4.
[+] It is now possible to play music modules,
written in Pro Tracker 3.5. Modules written in PT over
early versions, played with the old volume table,
a modules written in PT 3.5 - with a new table,
thanks to which you hear them exactly as you intended
author. An error was detected in the PT 3.51 player: incorrect
operation of command 9 (reducing the envelope frequency). For her
fix: just reset the byte at offset #4C1 from
beginning of the player.[+] If when loading the module ST, ST Pro, PT2, PTЗ, PSC immediately
after pressing `ENTER`, press and hold until the beginning
sound key `X` used during playback
frequency table will "turn over": B-4 <-> C-5, A-4 <-> D-5
etc., while major chords will turn into minor chords and
on the contrary... In general, the melody will sound somewhat
differently. :) For the first time such a reception, as far as I know,
I used SiRiL/4D in my player.
[*] Minimum starting address of modules that are played
own players, not those built into BV, reduced from
#9D69 to #9C01.
[*] When playing music modules ST, ST Pro, PT2, PTЗ,
PSC when operating the frequency analyzer, the use of
determined frequency table.
[*] The display of indicators when playing music is optimized by
speed; accordingly, the ability to disable
indicators have been removed from setup.
[-] In the previous version it was not always displayed correctly on
noise frequency indicator.
[*] When playing music, the design of the output has been slightly changed
data.
[*] When viewing texts/playing music, it is shown
full path to the file (for example, "A:filename.extcode__01").
[*] The right border of the cursor bar is moved 1 pix to the right,
so that the last letter of the file extension is better visible.
[*] If the file extension is empty (space), the dot in front of it is not
is displayed.
[*] When writing a disk directory to a text file in the first line
indicates the disk label.
[*] Duringpreparing text for viewing is displayed
"spin stick".
[*] When entering the name of the file to be recorded, you can switch
INS/OVR modes, you can enter Russian letters, available
Screen Grabber, the cursor position is remembered.
[-] After exiting the file recording menu, if you hold ENTER
or BREAK pressed longer than necessary could have triggered
auto-repeat, which was not required at all.
[-] When viewing short text after pressing `W` (splitting
long lines) there was a possibility of a repeated reaction to something not yet
released `W`.
[-] HRIP archives were recognized as blocks packed with HRUST;
naturally, trying to view them led to unpleasant experiences
consequences...
[-] When viewing texts in XAS assembler format in commands
BIT, SET, RES there was no comma between the operands.
[-] When viewing texts in assembler format, XAS operands
could be displayed in lowercase letters, and sometimes in line
an extra space was added after the operand.
[:] Maximum number of lines in npocmatpubaemom fragment
text reduced from #2000 to #1D00.
[:] The program length has increased by 7 sectors.
