35/Gus

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

Dear Gus,
	I enclose a disc containing four submissions for the December EUG.
As usual, I have put them in seperate directories:

JUPITER3 - The sequel to Shipwrecked. Type CHAIN"Ship" to start. The other
files contain various data which is needed by the game.
PROGTECH - Part two of my Programming Technique article, saved in three
sections (with the standard EUG prefixes).
ADVERT - A revised version of the econet advert published last time -
please put this into the shopping section.
EUG35 - A special Chrismas title screen for EUG35.

	I hope that these submissions aren't too big to all fit onto one
EUG disc, as they take up almost half the disc when put together.
	Could you please send me a replacement copy of EUG34, as it seems
that the Royal Mail were rather violent with my copy. I tried removing the
gate, which was bent out of shape and stopped me from getting the disk
into the drive, but many programs still produce disc errors when I try to
read them. I did manage to read your programming tutorial, though, and I
don't see it as competing with mine at all. If anything, I think that it
is a good companion to mine, as it shows you step by step the processes of
writing one particular program while mine is much more general.

Yours sincerely,
