MANUAL FOR £SIGNUSER (BBC BASIC+6502 Machine code) This file describes the program £SIGNUSER which intercepts the VDU stream and ensures that a pound sign appears correctly on both the screen and printer.It also allows the setting of printer type and printer ignore character easily. The manual is (C)1997 SPROW and software is (C)1996 SPROW INSTRUCTIONS- At the BASIC prompt,type CHAIN"£SGNUSR" or whatever you've saved it as. The program will then give some preamble about its purpose,then ask for the printer ignore character (as set by *FX6).An invalid number will result in a reference to the user guide. Next,the printer type is required (as set by *FX5),normally type 1 is used as this is the parallel printer.An invalid number will result in a reference to the user guide. Now,a connected printer must be active,and a list of available characters will be printed off,only one A4 sheet is needed as the text is printed in columns. Choose,as prompted,the number which refers to a pound sign.Then enter the character number as the pound sign appears in your wordprocessor or wherever the patch is going to be used from.If you only ever print from BASIC or the command line then 96 should be entered,as this is the BBC's normal pound sign. A file will then be output called 'Fixit' which may be *RUN in future,so that the pound sign prints correctly both on screen and paper.In addition your *FX5 and *FX6 setting are retained,and the VDU queue is FULLY interpretted,so the command VDU23,45,96,96,96,96,96,96,96,96 wont print out 8 pound signs!
