Exactly, yes. Instead of typing it into a spectrum, I wrote it on the PC, and used ZX BASIC to make that .tzx file.
It does end up as Machine Code - but that basic source code is what I made it from. -

BITWISE operators...Hi Folks, Another question - is there a way (fast) to do bitwise operations in Sinclair BASIC? Many thanks Paddy
Next version (1.2.6) of ZX BASIC Compiler by Boriel will have fast binary operations BAND, BOR, BNOT and BXOR, later versions also seting, reseting and testing of single bits.
