Hi.
It's a pain that my pages go down occasionally (free hosting).
Rest assured, they are still online and if they go down, please try again the following day.
I see all are up and running at the moment.

I also have a mirror up and running if needed - http://zx80.netai.net/grant/
(but please try the main site first in case I've missed something on the mirror)

Have fun.

Grant

Cheers Grant, thanks for the info! I already figured it was just a temporary issue... in any case, thanks for putting together that site, a lot of valuable info you got there.

Btw forgot to mention, I did another little improvement to the routine, implementing one of Dr. Beep's sizecoding tricks. Nothing has changed in terms of sound, but the maximum possible song data size for 1K machines is now 594 bytes. I also tried removing most of the D-FILE since it's not needed for this routine - it does work, but doesn't really seem to save any further memory.
