Re: CPU 4917

Looks really nice. I made a simulator, not nearly as sophisticated interface, for a SAP (Simple as possible) computer that ran on a commodore pet back in the '80s. Used it in a Jr. College class. Lots of fun.

Re: IMP calculator for bridge card game

Re: rnd() question

Re: Smart BASIC Programming. Lesson 1

Looks like a good start but it fails to define some of the symbols used in the examples and others that are needed to solve the exercise. For example & is not defined before it used or even after. the Divide symbol is not defined. * is used by not defined. comments should be defined early.

Re: PDF manual version 3.3

OS X is a direct descendant of Unix, and its file system is not case sensitive. Actually it is. If you use the Unix commands that are inside OS X you will find that the disk is actually storing the data case sensitive but the user interface masks this so it looks like it is not case sensitive.

Actually Unix is the owner of the problem. It started the case sensitivity thing soon after lower case was added to the ASCII set. By late 1969 the damage was done :)
