Hey all,
I'm trying to track down a manual or instructions for the Message Center
program on the Interact One (from 1978).
I've run this in the MAME emulator, and it seems the program has a
"partial" BASIC-like interpreter. You can do line numbers, like
10 HELLO
20 WORLD
Then issue the command SCROLL, and it will start scrolling text in the
numeric sequence they were specified. Then you can also do commands like
FLASH, BUZZ, BEEP in its equivalent of "immediate mode" -but I don't know
yet how to specify these commands in the numeric program. And in the
emulator, I can't yet parse the commands PLOT, SOUND, SIZE - these "message
center" program specific commands,not BASIC (BASIC on this system is
loaded from tape).
Anyway, a manual on a program for the Interact One called "Message Center"
is what I'm trying to track down.
Thanks,
Steve
