SPECTRUM FILE
-------------
A very useful routine for the 16K Spectrum has been sent by Wael Sabbagh
of Colchester. Spectrum File provides a method of storing the names and
addresses of up to 30 individuals. Only 20 characters can be handled on
each line of input but that should be no disadvantage, except perhaps on
the Other Information line.

Since some of the information in the file may be confidential, the files
can be accessed only when the secret code has been entered. STOP and
LIST commands would allow the Sinclair user to crack that deadlock
quickly. The code as listed is PMP but can be altered in line 50. The
routine is served by a very useful menu.

As with all filing routines, the user is well-advised to avoid RUN
commands. If the program is broken into, the GO TO 60 will return you
safely to the menu.

On a 48K machine, the routine will handle the details on 150 individuals
provided the number 30 in lines 3, 315, 1590 and 2520 is altered to 160.
If the program is to be saved, option 4 of the menu should be used.
