New Release: Type-In Master [TIM] for CPC

Type-In Master [TIM] – the first full-page BASIC editor for the
Amstrad CPC is released this weekend!

Most people agree that the CPC has one of the most powerful BASICs
around, but let’s be honest — the built-in editor has always been a
bit on the minimal side.

So, 42 years later, we decided to fix that by releasing a full-page
BASIC editor !

TIM

The goal was to keep as much BASIC memory free as possible for the
programmer. That’s why TIM doesn’t use a text or screen buffer, but
instead hooks directly into the BASIC ROM functions.

This wasn’t an easy job — it took a lot of testing to find the right
entry points for all the different ROM versions.

You can find more details on how to use the editor in the /Info file/,
or just press elp inside TIM.

We hope some of you will enjoy using it :)

Happy coding!

Raft!

Our member Valerie will be living as a woman from now on. We naturally respect this personal decision, because at TRSI, it’s the person that matters, and that won’t change.

W.O.T.W., Anybody, Madison, and Astaroth got together to discuss the future of the TRSI website. There was laughter, discussion, and planning. And yes, the font really is becoming more readable.

When Old Friends Sit Down Together Again

An evening in Berlin, old friends gathered around the same table, and conversations that picked up seamlessly right where they’d left off years ago. Madison and Astaroth met up with Mike and Ayatollah for a reunion that was, above all, wonderful.
