ZXpand curiosity.

Post by Moggy »

If you press SHIFT and NEWLINE to get the FUNCTION cursor, then press "V" you get "SMB17" printed to the lower left of the screen.
No idea what it means as it does nothing but a curio just the same. :lol:

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But, in practice, there is.

Thanks Paul I have just realised as Martin says that we have been this way before, my only excuse is old age and senility which comes to us all one day.
I had even forgotten to remember my wife's 73rd birthday until she rather forcibly reminded me :oops:

I have a birthday.p as Autorun program on my zeddy.
So every time I start up my zeddy it tells me who's Birthday is next. :mrgreen:
That happens a few times a day :ugeek:
