Bonus Book of Priceless Programs (Updated) & Bonus Pocket Programs - ChickenMan - 23-01-2024
Thanks to stauros for making scans of these available. All cleaned up and converted to searchable PDFs as usual. Both are A4 in size and 32 pages and 16 pages long respectively.
These are both produced by Your Computer magazine in 1985 as inserts to their monthly magazine. We already have the Bonus Book of Priceless Programs but includes scans of the Microbee pages only., so has been updated with this full scan and includes not only some Microbee listings but some System-80 listings as well. Contents includes -
Microbee
Ledgermaster - written by Lindsay Ford of Dreamcards
Motorbike Trails - by Ken Rowe
Clock - by Jeremy Fenton
System 80/TRS-80
Mailist - by David Minehan
Math Launch - by John Pospisil
Plus others for the Commodore 16 & 64, VZ200, Apple 2, dBase & CB80/86 compiler.
The Bonus 16 page Pocket Programs was included the following month and includes listings of -
Microbee
Direction and Distance - Peter Nesbitt
Mileage Master - by Peter Ford
Pontoon - by Jim Hendrickson
Difficulty - by M Alexander
System 80/TRS-80

Plus listings for Apple, APF, Peach, Sharp PC, Commodore & Sinclair, some of which I'm sure could be easily converted to run on the Microbee.
