To: 999 (all members) From: D5B (Jon Ripley) Subject: Speaking clock for all This is a BASIC program which uses Superior Software's Speech program to tell the time. If you are using a BBC Master the CMOS clock time is used, otherwise the time since the last reset. Users might find 'FNnumber(N%)' in the program of use as it converts any number from 0 to 99 into a form that Speech can say! Any comments, criticisms are welcomed as well as any suggestions for changes or improvements. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, To: 999 (all members) From: K2B (Colin Culpitt-Smith) Subject: Master date mod'n in WW+ For some time now, I've used a modified form of the Master's date in my WW+ text files. This gives me the date as 28th December 1995 instead of Thu,28 Dec 1995. I've just added a routine to correct the year when we reach the year 2000 and later - nothing like being prepared!! This routine just sits there testing the Master's year, and will only correct it when the Master fails to cope with 2000 or later. The Master will revert to 1900 in the year 2000, so this needs correction! My small Basic file is called 'DATEmod', and can be added to a boot file when firing up WW+, as it defines all the function keys to perform useful commands, including date stamping your text file disk. Fkey0 adds the modified date to WW+ Fkeys 1 & 2 are U/line on & off Fkey3 sets up my page layout Fkey4 date-stamps your disk Fkey5 is Just'n on Fkey6 is Just'n off Fkey7 is 'last page' commands Fkey8 is very very small print mode Fkey9 sets up the degree sign Hope you find the prog useful! ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
