VIEW80.BA creates VIEW80.CO

VIEW80.CO is a 1645 byte machine language program that displays 10 lines at 80 characters per line, that's 800 characters per screen.  VIEW80 has both upper and lower case characters with descenders, characters below ASCII 32 are not shown and characters above ASCII 125 are shown as an ASCII 255.  VIEW80 is not as easy to read as the original VIEW or CURSOR for it was written to help find formatting errors, it was not intended to be a text editor!

WARNING: Backup all files before running any machine language program.

VIEW80.CO uses LOAD80.BA to initialize and set the word wrap, you only need to enter LOAD80.BA once until you want to change something.  Run LOAD80.BA, you will see a list of your files and will be asked for a filename.  Type a text filename (without extension) and press ENTER.  Next you will be asked for a "Word Wrap" setting, VIEW80 has word wrap on space and dashes.  Just press ENTER for the full 80 columns or enter your own setting, if you enter a number less than 10 or greater than 80 LOAD80.BA will default to 60.  Next the screen will clear and display the first 10 lines, hit any key for the next screen.  The last line of the current screen is the first line of the next screen.  If you see something you want to change press F4 to enter the text file and make an edit.  When you return to the 100's Menu just place the cursor on VIEW.CO and presto you will see the same text file again without using LOAD80.BA.  If you decide to change the word wrap or file you are using run LOAD80 again, if you enter a invaild filename you will just return to the 100's Menu.
