QASM - A BRIDGE TO MACHINE CODE This program is aimed at two types of customers. The first is the one who feels that he has mastered the Basic language and wishes to turn his attention to machine code, but is not quite sure how to go about it. The second is the experienced machine code hacker. For the second category, QASM is essentially a collection of sub-routines plus a list of equates. The idea is that the equates are loaded into the editor and called as necessary. At run time QASM itself is loaded in addition to whatever program has been assembled and, of course, the equates call QASM. For the customer who is just starting to get his feet wet in machine code programming, QASM will prove to be a godsend. The difficulty that a lot of people have is trying to get their mind away from the ease and almost English like syntax of Basic and into the idea of using registers and various other functions for manipulating the data. Although this catalogue is not intended as a tutorial, people may be interested to know that a very good way of bridging the gap between Basic, in particular, but no doubt other high level languages as well, is to buy and use a programmable calculator. These are not quite as popular as they used to be because we now have pocket computers, but you can still buy them. We are more conversant with the Texas Instrument SR series but these remarks apply equally well to the Hewlett Packard. With these calculators one is forced to use registers rather than variable names. Also it introduces one to the concept of indirect addressing in a moderately painless fashion. Anyway, this is all by the by, particularly in the context of the description of this program, because QASM will, to a large extent, save you the cost of a programmable calculator. In other words, QASM forms a bridge between Basic and machine code. Those readers who use assemblers may skip the next paragraph or two because it is necessary for us to explain some of the mechanics before those customers unacquainted with assembly can understand what QASM is all about. In a Basic program, if one wants to call a subroutine then one uses the command GOSUB and follows it with a line number. If one wishes to branch or jump to another section of the program without a return, then one uses the statement GOTO. One of the big differences of assembly language (incidentally, 'assembly language' and 'machine code' or 'machine language' are all used pretty well interchangeably) is that one does not define a line number to which a jump, conditional or otherwise, is to be made. One defines it by giving it what is called a label. Usually this is a mnemonic of the function of the subroutine. If one has, for instance, a subroutine that performs a SIN function on a number in a particular register, then one might well call the subroutine SIN. Furthermore, it is often very useful to make a mnemonic description label equal to something other than a subroutine. Take, for instance, the situation where a program is frequently calling something in ROM. For example, in cassette work the better known ROM routines are clustered around the 200H area of ROM. A call to 212H turns on the motor of the cassette on the Model I, a call to 284H writes the tape leader, a call to 264H writes one byte from the A register and so on. It is perfectly possible in a program if one wants to turn on the cassette motor simply to assemble the instruction CALL212H. However, if at the beginning of the program one has made 212H equal to the label MOTOR then obviously the program is going to be much more readable, in that one can CALL MOTOR. Hence, most people use the Equate command in the assembler to set up labels, both within and without the limits of the program. QASM consists of two separate sections of code. The first is in what is called source form and it may be loaded into an assembler. It consists of a large number of equate statements. There are about 110 or so in all. These are loaded into the Editor/Assembler that the customer is using before he starts to write his program. The program is then written using as many of the equates as the author wishes and then assembled in the normal way. When the thus written program comes to be used, the other section of QASM is loaded in addition to the home written program. The address of the equates tie up with the addresses of QASM and, as QASM and the program are both in memory, the machine will consider the two to be one. In other words, that QASM and the custom written program are one program. This is an extremely fast way of writing code because over 100 subroutines have already been written for you. This no doubt why Mr. Woodruff (who also wrote Horolog, Astrolog and Astronomical Calender) used the acronym for 'Quick ASeMbly'. More important than speed of assembly however, those people who are just starting to write assembly have not only got a large quantity of code already written for them, but it has been labelled in such a way that it is meaningful to a person familiar with Basic. Thus, pretty well all of the mathematical functions are supported as is the random function and even the FOR NEXT loops. Let us illustrate the use of QASM with the random number. A normal basic statement would be A = RND(20). If you are not familiar with machine code you might scratch your head for quite a while trying to find a way of converting this Basic statement, which you know so well, into the equivalent assembly code. With QASM, it is only necessary to assemble four lines as follows: LD HL,20 --- --- CALL RND LD HL,XA CALL FPV The first line stores the number 20 into the HL register, the second line calls the subroutine in QASM, entitled RND, the third loads the address of a pseudo variable XA and the final line calls a subroutine in QASM which puts the random number into the pseudo variable. It will be seen, therefore, that the task of producing a random variable in machine language has been made rather simple because of the help given by QASM. QASM operates in single precision, it does not support double precision. As we have seen, QASM supports what we have termed pseudo variables, and you may perform pretty well any mathematical function upon them. SIN, COS, TAN, ATN, SQR, SGN FIX, INT, ABS, LOG and EXP, for instance, all carry out the same functions as their Basic equivalent. We have already mentioned that Random is supported, so also are three comparisons, namely compare equally, compare larger or compare smaller. FOR NEXT loops on n, GOTO, GOSUBs and so on are all available. There are also special routines for accepting a number from the keyboard and printing. Strings are also supported. For instance, the common Basic statement PRINT x A$ in QASM language becomes: LD HL,YA --- --- CALL PTLIN The first line stores a pointer in the register HL,YA, of course, is the string variable and the call simply prints it out. String manipulation is also supported, such as Basic statements LEN and ASC. The Basic statement READ is supported in a sort of quasi way. Arrays are supported. In the field of graphics, SET, RESET and POINT in QASM are the same as the Basic equivalents. As we have said, we do not have the space to list all of the calls in QASM, but the above should give a pretty good idea of the extent of this extremely useful utility. QASM is supplied with a printout of a demonstration program which uses its functions. This is fully commented and would be very useful to people who want to see how QASM is used. Although irrelevant to its function as a demonstration program, the program does in fact calculate the distance in nautical miles on great circle routes.

Zoom Offers New Software Three new software programs for the Model I are now available. QKEDT ($14.95), a utility for cassette Electric Pencil users, converts Basic programs into ASCII files which can then be read into the Pencil, and vice versa. Basic programs can be typed in using the Pencil instead of the Level II line editor. TCHTYP ($10.95), useful for teaching children numbers and letters or for practicing your touch typing, fills the screen with one giant character on the instant any key is hit. Written in machine code, this program provides both upper and lowercase characters. A graphics editor permits modification of characters. ZMBUG 2.0 ($17.50, for Zoom 3.6 users) searches for file names, verifies recordings, lists addresses of all files encountered, converts Basic programming into Pencil files, and loads and saves at 3,600 bits per second. These programs are available from Zoom, Box 1496, Raton, NM 87740, (505) 445-5787.

AMATEUR LOG - A UTILITY FOR THE HAM This program is strictly for the radio amateur and will have no application to anyone else. It is designed to store and re-access all on air activity of a radio amateur and provides real time QSO logging, history file access, file update and create, repeater timer, QRA locator and full QSY facilities. In use, the time and data are entered into the program first of all, the form in GMT. The program then formats the screen with the work area and waits for a menu prompt as displayed on the split screen. In operation the QSO to be worked is first signed on to the system. The program will then check that the computer has been given a frequency in Mghz. The disk file is then opened to check through for any file with the same call sign. Only one file is created for each call sign on any given disk. If any previous QSO has been worked with that station, the computer will advise that a file exists and will display the first name of the operator and/or the last date worked. If the QSO being worked is not found on the disk, a file is immediately opened. Any file may be updated as required and 250 files may be created on a formatted disk. A disk with a minimum operating system on it can contain 235 records. A repeater timer is available which, upon request, starts counting and displaying seconds from the internal clock. The seconds are displayed at the top right hand corner and will prompt the operator after 10 minutes, if not reset, or after 15 minutes to remind of call sign regulations requiring a call sign to be broadcast. A QRA locator facility is provided which, upon entering the QRA locator, will display the grid reference. Memory Requirement 32k TRS-80 Disk Model 1 & 3 SYSTEM 80 Disk Mark I & II 11-2621

QSL MANAGER Did you remember to send a QSL card to the op you worked last week? Maybe you sent a QSL, but can't recall getting one in return. The QSL Manager program will help you set up a computerized log book for instant access to your records. Make complete log entries which include: date, time, call sign, name, band, both the Sent and Received signal reports, the mode, QSL sent/received, and any remarks you may want to add. No more fumbling with index cards during a QSO, because the QSL Manager has a built-in search function to locate and display information on any call sign in your records. You can even list all the QSO's for a particular date, time, band worked, mode or a specific signal report. The program will automatically check to see how much memory you have in your system. If you have a two disk, 32K system, you may have a maximum of 1000 entries in your log (500 entries if you have a single disk system). A 48K system limits you to 1400 entries. These limits are caused by the fact that you have only 350 sectors on a disk. Each entry used 1/4 of a sector, thus the 1400 entry limit. The program has built-in editing features that help you keep your log book up-to-date. There's also a command that lets you output your log entries to a printer for hard copy. In the next QSO, knock their socks off with your infallible memory. Model I, Level II, 16K, Expansion Interface + one disk drive. 0151RD (Disk) $19.95

QUAD - MIND BENDING Quad is three dimension noughts and crosses. As its name implies, it is played on a cube of four layers each with four ranks. Like noughts and crosses, the aim of the game is to get crosses and noughts in a line either horizontally, vertically or diagonally. The cube is depicted graphically on the VDU and either two players may take part or a single player may play the computer. Four levels of difficulty are provided and a time clock is also included for each move. A particularly important feature of the game is that the cube on which the game is played may be rotated so that the player can see it from a different angle. A number of commands are provided including setting up previous positions, backing up to a previous position, progressing to the next position, reversal of order of play and switching of opponents. This is a complex game of strategy in which the player will need all his skills. Memory Requirement 16k TRS-80 Tape Model 1 & 3 40-2645

QUAGMIRE - A COMPUTERISED ELECTRONIC GAME Quagmire was first invented as an electronic game and first appeared as a constructional project in 'Everyday Electronics'. This software incorporates all of the features of the original, plus several improvements. It is tempting to categorise it as a maze game, but in fact it is not. To a large extent it is a game of skill and certainly experience. Perhaps the best simile to describe it is to imagine a marsh criss-crossed by a network of narrow paths. The path is safe, except for certain spots (which are marked on the screen map upon which the game is played) which may be dangerous. If possible, the player should jump over them. However, sometimes they are particularly dangerous and landing on them can be fatal. It is a game of suspense, skill and strategy for 2, 3 or 4 players of all ages. The skill comes in because at the centre of the map is a flashing area which indicates the level of danger at the marshy sites. If it is flashing slowly it is safe to land, but the faster it flashes the more risk such a move causes. Indeed, if you land on one of these spots when the flashing is at its fastest then it is almost inevitable that the player will sink into the quagmire and his piece (of which, incidentally, he has four) will be lost from the game. The flashing serves a further purpose. To determine the direction of your move, the player must press one of the keys N, S, E, or W. If the key is pressed whilst the flashing block is illuminated, the move will be for two spaces, otherwise for one. This additional space can be very important because it allows the player to make rapid progress across the marsh and (often more importantly) to leap over the danger spots. This is where the element of skill enters the game, especially if the patch is flashing rapidly and danger is at its highest. Keying at the wrong time can land you straight into a danger spot. It is hard to categorise this game. It is most enjoyable and although we have never played the original, we would think that this computerised version has a large number of advantages. We imagine that in some respects it is similar to a 'de-luxe' version of Snakes and Ladders, but it seems to have an appeal all of its own. The competitive ingredient is very high. In other words, a fun game.
