Foreword

This, the last in the series of Junior Computer Books, describes all the software required to operate the complete system

Chapter 13 introduces an extended version of the Printer Monitor program (PME) which combines the advantages of the original editor program with those of the Printer Monitor. It selects the best of both worlds. As a result, program entry and assembly can be accomplished quickly and easily.

Chapter 14 provides a detailed description of the Printer Monitor program and the associated subroutines, while the extended version is fully described in chapter 15. The software required for the cassette interface, the Tape Monitor program, is explained in great detail in chapter 16.

As well as providing a complete rundown on the various system routines, Book 4 also contains detailed program listings of the PME, the TM and PM software in the appendices at the back of the book.

Finally, appendix 5 describes how BASIC may be run on the Junior Computer, a welcome facility that puts the machine in touch with the rest of the world.
