Thanks - apart from reminding of my days of typing in ZX81 programs from magazine listings and then trying to save space (defining variables from text values, I seem to recall was one method) you have inspired me to fire up my copy of QL2K and try your listing out. I had to use an editor to strip out the CR characters as you suggest and then QLAYT.EXE to link the file into my win1_ directory.

It mostly works until density% becomes 5 at which point it fails at line 310 with "bad parameter", presumably because it is trying to do a RND(1 to 0).

Any suggestions?

I'm sat here surrounded by snow (well, outside the house). So, what
better than to write a snowfall simulator?
