"Perpetual Calendar" by Steve Bjork
Ойындар
I know Steve Bjork had mixed feelings about the MC-10, but as an MC-10er I have nothing but the deepest respect for him. His programming skills were an inspiration to me as young programmer. Allen Huffman recently sent me some old BASIC code of Steve's. I have ported his perpetual calendar source. Now he is a contributor to the MC-10 program library. Thanks so much Steve!

Thank you - I miss the days of being able to simply being able to program the machines and see them as an amazing machine and not just a tool to connect to the internet. They were truly fun then...
Ha! I didn’t pick a month that had any of the extra text, like BOO! in Halloween. Nice.
You improved it!

I just shortened some of the holiday messages because of the shift from 32 vs 64 wide screen lines. In general I just take any PRINT@ from a TRS-80 Model 1/3 program and divide it by 2 and then try to shrink the message by about a half. So Hal'wn became BOO. Been using that technique for converting TRS-80 Model 1/3 software for years. Makes converting Model 1/3 programs pretty simple. It's those computers that use 40X24 that are tough.

I need to see if I can find the original sources for this :)
