Also, the "Atom" name, was once used for a British made computer
called
the Acorn Atom - back in 1980's ..... the era of the first QL machines
too.
The Atom was a fine machine, with a fast (if unusual) basic.
*#*Snip#*#
I though it ran BBC Basic, which was inferior but similar to SuperBASIC?
IIRC Atom basic was an unstructured basic, fast, but with listingshard
to follow because they were peppered with keyword abbreviations, pokes
and symbols. There may have been similarities with BBC BASIC, but
without the structures.
Are you sure that wasnt just your code then, Dilwyn? ;o)
