GRAPHIC DESIGNER (User-Defined Graphics)

by Paul Aylin

from Sinclair User #15 (June 1983)



Paul Aylin of Dundee has written a program for the 16K Spectrum to help

users design their user-definable graphics. An eight by eight grid is

printed and you are asked to input the name of your character - any

lower-case letter from "a" to "u". You can then complete the grid, using

"1" to draw a black square and "0" to draw a white square.



At the end of each line, both the binary and the decimal number for that

line are displayed. On completion of the last line, the completed

graphic is displayed above the grid. There is also a provision for mis-

takes and artistic inspiration - each line can be changed if "2" is

pressed.
