FACECO.100 by Don Zeikel [75775,1430]


CAUTION: This program will run on a MODEL 100 or 102 ONLY!

If you make faces at your computer, now your computer has a chance to make faces back at YOU.  This machine language program contains menus of silly face parts that can be combined to make 1,048,576 different faces.  You can even use it for police artist composite sketches, as long as the suspect is real GOOFY looking.


LOADING THE PROGRAM

First download FACECO.100 as FACECO.DO, you will also need RLCLDR.BA to convert the .DO file to FACES.CO.  Because the .DO file plus the .CO file is over 22960 bytes you will have to take a few extra steps to convert the .DO file, however once you have created the .CO file you will only need the .DO file if you want to create FACES.CO at a different location so you only have to go through this lengthy process once!

Second save FACECO.DO, and any other valuable RAM files to disk or cassette as dealing with machine language files creates the possibility for a cold start.


TO CREATE FACES.CO COMPLETELY IN RAM

If you are not going to be loading any other machine language programs at the same time load FACECO.DO and RLCLDR.BA into RAM and clear memory by entering BASIC and typing: CLEAR 256, 55552 [ENTER]

Otherwise change 55552 to a lower number and make a note of it.

Then run RLCLDR.BA, at the first prompt enter 1 or L for "Load".  When it asks for a file name enter FACECO.  When it asks for a start address enter 55552 or whatever number you jotted down.  The process will take several minutes so you can go practice making faces in the mirror to get in the mood.

Eventually RLCLDR.BA should beep and say "Done", followed by "?OM Error", the latter is because of the lack of memory.

Type: KILL "FACECO.DO" [ENTER]
Type: SAVEM "FACES",HIMEM,HIMEM+7407,HIMEM [ENTER]

Go back to the MENU and you will see FACES.CO.

You can save FACES.CO to disk or cassette, to save it to cassette type: 
SAVEM"CAS:FACES",HIMEM,HIMEM+7407,HIMEM [ENTER]

To load it back later type: LOADM"CAS:FACES" [ENTER]


RUNNING THE PROGRAM

Use function keys 1 through 5 (in any order) to choose menus of face parts.  Move the cursor with the arrow keys, and press [ENTER] to select face parts.

End the program by using the F8 key or the ESC key.

Have fun!
