ATTRIBUTE AID (Spectrum)

by Bill Davison & Mark Broomfield

from Sinclair User 39 (June 1985)



Paper and ink colours, flash and bright are all attributes of a

particular character square. The details are held in the attributes

file, which you can POKE and PEEK directly to change or find the

contents.



Attribute Aid by Bill Davison and Mark Broomfield of Hornchurch in

Essex, runs on any Spectrum and can be used to discover the attri-

butes of a particular combination of graphics information, or display

the graphics corresponding to a particular attribute number. That can

be useful, since the four attributes are combined into a single number

between 1 and 255, and thus the program saves you the trouble of

working out the sums in advance and possibly making a mistake.
