Just to emphasize that BASIC's interpreter | didn't care? | jasperry wrote: | I can verify that it's that way (without the spaces) in the | original. Sometimes you had to do it to fit all the code in two | screen lines, because that was the maximum line length. So it | probably became a habit for some programmers. | hnthrowaway0315 wrote: | Thanks! It is from you that I first heard about Lulu and looks | like their price is pretty reasonable (600 page A5 Hardcover only | costs 20 bucks but probably a lot more for CAD). I have quite a | few manuals and pdfs that I would like to convert to books. | endorsedbyflow wrote: | Registered to say, amazing effort.

What's the estimate cost of a print? | rusk wrote: | Incredible. Thanks so much for this. Just wondering, do you think | you'll do the schematic at some stage? ___________________________________________________________________ (page generated 2022-03-04 23:00 UTC)
