Spherical Objects

Geoffrey Wearmouth

This program, for any model  Spectrum, takes an ordinary screen picture and
processes it into a spherical shape. This strange design can then be saved to
tape, or printed out, and be loaded into most graphics packages including Art
Studio, for manipulation.

After running the program, a menu appears at the bottom of the screen. Pressing
L will load in the screen you wish to transform. Then press G to start the
process,  a radius of 81 is recommended, and sit back and wait for the screen to
be redrawn. It takes around eight minutes on average.

Once drawn the screen can be dumped to any printer accepting the COPY command on
a 48K Spectrum or an Epson compatible on a 128K/Plus 2, or saved for use in art
type programs.
