- This program library contains a NEW programming language for
- PC DOS and MS DOS called The Structured Programming Language.
- The library has the following files:
-
- 1. SP.EXE and SPA.EXE the Structured Program Language Processor.
-
- 2. MANUAL the manual for the Structured Programming Language
-
- 3. IPLOT.SP a program that plots a 3d picture. Use scale factor 5.
-
- 4. BLACKJAC.SP a program that plays blackjack.
-
- 5. ERAT.SP a benchmark program that creates prime numbers.
-
- 6. IPICDUMP.SP a program that loads a digitized picture of me
- on an IBM computer with an EGA card.
-
- 7. PREDITOR.SP a PRogram EDITOR written in SPL that is suited for writing
- programs in the Structured Programming Language. After PREDITOR.BAS is
- created, compile the program with the MS BASIC compiler for speed.
- PREDITOR is a commercial program distributed as shareware and you can
- try it for a month and purchase it for $25 if you are satisfied
- with it.
-
- The program IPICDUMP.SP when translated to BASIC,loaded and saved
- in the Microsoft Basic interpreter as an ascii file and then compiled
- with VERSION 2 QUICK BASIC compiler,will load the file PICTURE on an
- IBM PC with an EGA card with HIGH RESOLUTION Color monitor 650x350
- 16 colors (Monitor set to monochrome mode giving 16 shades of grey).
- This picture will be a digitized photo of me.
-
- When IPICDUMP.EXE is run it will ask ROW LENGTH You input 320.
- It will then ask for a scale factor,You input 2.
- It will then ask for a picture file name,You input PICTURE.
- Press the space bar to end the program and go back to DOS.
-
- I have gotten this language to work on various computers ranging
- from the IBM PCjr,IBM PC,Zenith Z-100 to various IBM Work alike
- computers. It is meant to work with your BASIC compiler and/or
- interpreter, since the language processor translates SPL to
- Microsoft BASIC. It will even cooperate with the newest BASIC
- compilers that allow for very large object module sizes. This
- means you could have SPL code that can use an entire 640k IBM PC.
-
- NOW the SPL processor creates BASIC code that does not have to be
- loaded into the BASIC interpreter first, JUST sort the program
- using your DOS SORT utility and then input the sorted BASIC program
- into your favorite BASIC compiler.
-
- SPL translated programs are portable to other computers depending
- on the type of operations you do. Potential target machines are
- CP/M, AMIGA , MACINTOSH , ATARI ST and others that support compiled
- and interpreted BASIC. The SPL processor will work on IBM addons
- for AMIGA, MACINTOSH , ATARI ST computers.

- The manual for the Structured Programming Language is found in
- file MANUAL. This file has been encrypted WITH A PASSWORD. You will need
- to call me at 516 694 5872 to obtain the password to allow you to have a
- manual you can read and print out. Thank you for your understanding. Please
- call during normal New York business hours. I will help you succeed in
- using the Structured Programming Language.
