SERIOUSLY NOW... A look at some 'serious' software packages for the ZX Spectrum by Peter Shaw. CHARACTER DESIGNER 48K Spectrum Procom The second character enhancement, which also uses the whole character set, was not without its problems. The software supplied, like Multifont, had some bugs, and some pretty big bugs at that! The instructions helped me in no great way, and I had very little idea as to what I was supposed to be doing. I soon sussed that the program was an improved version of the character generator you get with the 'Horizons' introduction tape. Improved because it enables you to redefine the whole set, not just the user-defined graphics; when I say 'improved' I don't mean the program itself is better. Apart from the bugs the program is slow and messy - if the programmer had spent a little more time with the program, Procom might have a good product. Having already written a character generator program myself I find it hard to understand how they make it so slow. Procom, Museward Ltd., [redacted].
