There are 18 articles and 8 N}programs packed onto this disk! I hope you find them interesting and enjoyable. I'm sorry for the delay in the release N}of Futura 6 - it would have been out on the 1st March if I hadn't experienced a string of hardware failures (not to mention aN}n onslaught of university essays)! Why is it that everything always happens at the same time? You will read within thisN} issue that I have decided to take Futura out of the public domain from Futura 7 onwards. A full explanation is given withinN} the Futura.DOC file on Side A. I have placed a number of the articles on Side B. To read these, simply load ViewDocs fN}rom Side A, flip the disk, and enter the filename at the prompt. There are three excellent programs on Side A. Colour HN}elper V4.0 is a type of utility I have wanted to see for a long time. It gives the Setcolor and Poke figures for on-screen cN}olours. No more experimenting with various Pokes! Spider (Demo Version) is a great game written by the Aktiesend Atari N}User Club in Germany. You must collect all the keys to open the door to the insect repellent spray and the next level. WatcN}h out for all the spiders! There are only seven levels in this demo version but I can guarantee you that they'll keep you buN}sy for some time. I'm still battling my way through level 5! The top ten highscores are saved to disk. Capture The FlaN}g is, in my opinion, the best two-player game ever written for the Atari 8-Bit! The graphics and sound aren't anything speciN}al but the gameplay is unbeatable! Both players begin the game at the top corners of the maze. They must race down to the bN}ottom to collect the flag. You have a limited amount of ammo which allows you to shoot a wall (or your opponent). When you N}capture the flag you must race back up to your starting square. However, when one player has the flag, the other has unlimitN }ed ammo! If you are shot by your opponent whilst holding the flag you loose it and begin at your starting sqaure. You will N!}then have unlimited ammo to re-capture the flag! This is a true 8-Bit classic! I have decided to devote Side B to the eN"}xcellent Turbo BASIC! Boot without BASIC and select from the menu. To enter Turbo BASIC, simply press Reset at the menu. TN#}ype DIR [Return] and you'll see that your in Turbo BASIC - you can list the contents of a disk without going to DOS with the N$}DIR command. Complete Turbo BASIC documentation can be found on NOSAUG PD Disks U04 and U23. There are five Turbo BASICN%} programs on Side B. Horse Racing is a great game in which you must win six races. The battle down the home-straight is reaN&}lly exciting! Full docs are in the HORSRACE.DOC file. Random Music Maker (RMM) produces random musical notes in Turbo BN'}ASIC - the final tunes are pretty good! Word Counter, Loan and HexaDeci are three programs from the Turbo BASIC ProgrammN(}ing Kit which is reviewed in Software Scene. I have found all three to be very useful. So, there you have it - another N)}issue of Futura packed with news, information and programs. I hope you enjoy it!Stuart J. Murray, Futura Editor.another LuFUTURA EDITORIAL - MARCH/APRIL 1993Futura 7 Please remember that Futura 7 - May/June 1993 and all subsequent issues R+}will ONLY be available direct from NOSAUG! Send to: S.J.Murray, NOSAUG, 71 Walker Road, Torry, Aberdeen, AB1 3DL, Scotland.R,} The 8-Bit goes marching on!Inside Atari Basic I have discovered that B&C ComputerVisions in the USA (see InfoFile) R-}are now selling copies of this excellent book for newcomers to programming in Atari BASIC. The book was released back in 198R.}3 and has been unavailable for many years. I decided to serialize a small part of this book in Futura due to this unavailabiR/}lity (see Inside Atari Basic 1-4 in Futura issues 2-5). However, now that I've discovered that B&C are selling it for only $R0}5 (about 3.50 pounds) I have stopped my serialization. The book has lots more to offer including a excellent section on grapR1}hics and sound. A new intermediate-level programming column will begin in Futura 7 (depending upon a positive response to QuR2}estion 5 in the survey, see COMP.DOC).Advertising for Futura and NOSAUG You may have noticed lately that I have been R3}advertising Futura in a few 8-Bit publications. I have placed ads in the Page 6 Contact Column, Atari Classics Swap'n'Shop aR4}nd the TWAUG Newsletter. These ads have brought Futura to the attention of many 8-Bitters. I have now decided to begin a deR5}termined advertising campaign to ensure the growth of Futura subscriptions throughout 1993. I have started by placing anR6} advertisement with Page 6 Publishing for inclusion in Page 6 New Atari User 61 (April/May 1993). This was possible because R7}of the increase in the number of subscribers over the past few months. I hope to gain a few more subscriptions with this ad.R8} If this happens, I plan to place a quarter-page ad in Atari Classics as well as another small ad in Swap'n'Shop. Further aR9}ds will be placed in various 8-Bit publications throughout 1993. I will also send issues of Futura to these publications forR:} review. Finally, at the end of this year I hope to organise a NOSAUG stand at the All Mirco Show 7 down in Stafford. ThereR;} will be more details about this in future issues. With the advertising and reviews of Futura I hope to increase the amoR<}unt of subscribers throughout 1993. I complete my Honours Degree at the beginning of June and would like to concentrate on FR=}utura and NOSAUG on a full-time basis. This remains dependent on the amount of subscribers to Futura and the level of PD salR>}es from the NOSAUG PD Library. This is where you come in. If you know of anyone who may be interested in Futura or NOSAUG pR?}lease ask them to get in touch with me. The more sales I gain, the more time I can devote to the development of Futura and NR@}OSAUG. However, whether it be part-time or full-time, I can guarantee you 100% effort on my part.Hypocrisy & The Grim ReaRA}per I have just received issue 7 of this PD disk magazine and feel I must respond to comments made by the editor about FRB}utura and the NOSAUG PD Library. "If you no longer subscribe to Page 6 then you may not have heard of a new disk mag titRC}led 'FUTURA'. The disk is double sided, single density and contains programs, articles and the like. When first advertised RD}'FUTURA' was free if you sent a SAE, but now I think it costs #1.95. It is a good disk mag but one thing I must bring up is RE}the PD Library the editor runs. Putting commercial programs like Barkonid and Phantastic Journey into it is just not right. RF} Since when did PD programs have bad sectors? To order the disk mag..." John E., Editorial, The Grim Reaper 07, January 199RG}3. There are two central points of concern here: the price of Futura and the inclusion of commercial programs in the NOSRH}AUG PD Library.(i) The price of Futura, as you probably already know, is indeed #1.95. It has ALWAYS been #1.95! Issue onRI}e was also available if you sent me a blank disk and a SAE. However, I did not receive one single reply to the blank disk & RJ}SAE offer - only orders for #1.95 arrived. I therefor decided to offer Futura for #1.95 only. Anyway, I'm sure you will allRK} agree that this is a very reasonable price. The TGR Editor has implied that the first issue was free and that the price theRL}n increased to #1.95. There has NEVER been a price increase for Futura - it has always been #1.95! The TGR Editor forgot toRM} mention that Futura 1 was available at this price.(ii) The comments made by the TGR Editor concerning my operation of the RN}NOSAUG PD Library are most unwelcome! The two programs of concern are Barkonid and Phantastic Journey. He uses these disks RO}as passing examples instead of as the only two case examples, thus implying that the NOSAUG PD Library contains more than twoRP} commercial disks. This is not true! I received UNPROTECTED versions of Barkonid and Phantastic Journey from one of my contRQ}acts just before the release of Futura 3. There were no bad sectors on either of the disks. Both myself and the contact belRR}ieved these disks to be in the public domain. I therefor placed them both in the provisional PD listing in Futura 3. Just aRS}fter the release of Futura 3, I received a telephone call from the contact explaining that both disks were not PD and that thRT}ey were, in fact, commercial programs. I then closely examined both disks and noticed the words "DE-PROTECTED BY JOHN E." onRU} each title screen. They were indeed commercial programs which had been pirated. As soon as I confirmed this, I took both dRV}isks out of the provisional PD listing and formatted over them both! I then decided to completely reorganise the whole NOSAURW}G PD Library to make sure such a mistake would not occur again. This reorganisation has only just been completed! Not one sRX}ingle copy of Barkonid or Phantastic Journey was ordered or sent out. I do not like to criticise the Editor of TGR withiRY}n Futura but I felt I had to respond to his mistaken comments. I did write a letter to him at the beginning of February detaRZ}iling the true facts and requesting a response but no reply was forthcoming. I detailed in my letter that if he had written R[}to me for the full facts the whole matter could have been avoided. Criticism is only valid when the full facts are availableR\}! The Atari 8-Bit needs all the support it can get just now. However, mistaken comments, such as those in the EditorialR]} of TGR07, are not the kind of support I wish to see! The inclusion of pirated commercial programs in PD libraries is indeedR^} "not right". I agree with this 100% and it is one of the main reasons I have spent many hours reorganising the NOSAUG PD LiR_}brary. What John E., the TGR Editor, forgets to mention is that the actual pirating of the programs in the first place is whR`}at caused this whole situation. The pirating of commercial software is the central cause of the decline in support for the 8Ra}-Bit Atari! We have lost the support of dozens of software companies over the last few years (Datasoft, Origin, Electronic ARb}rts, Tynesoft, Zeppelin, Hi-Tec, etc.) due to these pirates. John E. conveniently forgets to mention this in his Editorial. Rc} But, then again, who was it who de-protected Barkonid and Phantastic Journey? Hyprocrisy or what?Sound Monitor ProfessioRd}nal Docs Many thanks to those of you who wrote in offering to translate the German SMP Docs - I was very surprised when Re}I received four offers of help with the translation. I wrote to the author of SMP a few weeks ago requesting documentation iRf}n English but have not yet received a reply. I will give him another two weeks to reply and then send out the Docs for transRg}lation to the 'Futura German Translation Team' (Hee! Hee!). Check out Futura 7 for more details. The Docs may even be incluRh}ded along with all the new .SNG files.Futura Competitions Thanx for the suggestions for new Futura Competitions. HerRi}e are some of them:- A competiton with a question about an adventure problem. Whoever sends in the answer/clue/map first wRj}ins the prize. (Steve Phillips, Bristol);- How many angels can dance on the head of a pin? Answer: 1.4 x 10^27! (Alan HitcRk}hen, Runcorn);- An Atari Classic wordsearch (sent by John McIntyre, Broxburn). Keep the feedback coming - Futura is YOURl}R magazine! Let me know if you have any suggestions for future issues.Communications A couple of Futurians have receRm}ntly written to me requesting information on how to get on-line with their Atari 8-Bits. Here is what you need:(1) A ModemRn}. Modems are rated by baud and range from 300 baud to 14400 baud! The higher the baud, the greater the speed of sending andRo} receiving data (and the greater the price!). A good value example is the Supra 2400 which retails for 79.95 pounds (First CRp}omputer Centre - 0532-319444). For those with a lot of spare cash, the top of the range Supra-Fax 14400 is 270 pounds!(2) Rq}An RS232 interface (to connect the modem to your Atari 8-Bit). Gralin International (see InfoFile) sell the Datari RS232 IntRr}erface for 29.99 pounds + 1.50 P&P.(3) Communications software. Page 6 sell Mini-Office II for only 9.95 pounds + 1 pound Rs}P&P. I am very interested in beginning a new column dealing with communications and the Atari 8-Bit. Would anyone be wiRt}lling to produce two or three articles? I can offer a free NOSAUG PD disk for each Comms article published in Futura. PleasRu}e get in touch if you can help. I hope to be on-line this summer and will detail my adventures in the world of communicationRv}s in future issues of Futura.Correspondence & Submissions From the beginning of NOSAUG back in 1991 I have replied toRw} all NOSAUG and Futura letters and orders by personal letter. I believe it is essential to let people feel that they are invRx}olved in NOSAUG and Futura even though they may live some distance away. I have no intention of changing this policy; if anyRy}thing, I wish to see everyone even more involved. However, I must ask you to understand that sometimes I have very little spRz}are time from my university, work and NOSAUG commitments. This occasional lack of spare time may lead to a slight delay in tR{}he reply to your letters. I make a concerted effort to answer all letters within seven days and I manage this about 90% of tR|}he time. I prefer including personal replies to letters and orders rather than just throwing the disks in an envelope. R}}However, this does sometimes add to the time it takes to reply. I write about 20-30 letters every week and this will increasR~}e if subscription numbers increase. This is why I have decided to make a commitment to all Futura subscribers. From Futura R}7 (May/June 1993) I will do my very best to reply to ALL orders, letters and questions within seven days. Most will be sent R}within three days! My girlfriend has agreed to assist in the copying of disks - this will help a great deal. A prompt and eR}fficient service can gain many new orders. I have decided to begin a new column within Futura entitled 'Futura Feedback'R}. If I can answer some of your questions within Futura the information will be available to all Futurians. After all, the aR}nswer to a question may help many other users with similar questions. I would like to see many more Futurians and NOSAUGR} members becoming actively involved with Futura. This is why I have decided to conduct an annual survey (see COMP.DOC). YouR}r views and opinions are essential to a successful and interesting disk magazine. Articles and programs are always welcoR}me. I can offer a free NOSAUG PD disk or cassette for each article published. One Futurian has already offered to submit a R}couple of articles for Futura 7. If an 8-Bit subject is of interest to you it will be of interest to other Futurians too. R} Any news or information, no matter how small, can be of great interest to fellow Futurians. Many of the points mentioned R}in the 8-Bit News column have come from Futura readers. Reviews of commercial and PD programs are also most welcome. TwR}o Futurians have already agreed to produce reviews of NOSAUG PD software for inclusion in Futura 7. More reviewers are needeR}d. Why not review your favourite program, book or hardware add-on? I prefer to receive submissions as .DOC files on disR}k but hard-copies are fine. Don't worry about spelling mistakes, paragraphs, etc. - I'll tidy-up the text before I place it R}in Futura. I believe Futura has a future - a long and interesting future! I would like to thank you all for your supporR}t over the first six issues - it is very much appreciated! I hope you will continue to support Futura well into the future aR}nd join me on a wonderful journey of Atari 8-Bit computing. 2001 - here we come!Yours Atari-8-Bitly,Stuart J.

See you next time!r another thirty new PD disks and some PD disTPFUTURA : PD OR NOT PD?by S.J.Murray, NOSAUG.[Futura is a disk-based magazine for the Atari 8-Bit. It is produced by the Z}North Of Scotland Atari User Group (NOSAUG) and contains articles on various 8-Bit subjects, 8-Bit news from around the worldZ}, and the latest European PD programs.] "Is Futura PD?" This is a question I am often asked by Futurians who wish to coZ}py an issue for their friends. The simple answer is "yes". However, I would obviously prefer that 8-Bitters purchased FuturZ}a direct from me to show their support for my efforts to produce a low-cost quality disk magazine. I would love for Futura tZ}o remain in the public domain for all to enjoy if those who received it took the time to send to me for the next issue. ThisZ} has happened on many occasions - especially from the Page 6 PD Library. However, to ensure the future survival of Futura, IZ} have had to make a very tough decision. From Futura 7 onwards, Futura will NOT be in the public domain. Issue 7 will probaZ}bly be protected and will only be available direct from myself. This will not affect current subscribers in any way. WiZ}th the addition of this issue (Futura 6) there are now six issues of Futura in the public domain. These issues have featuredZ} some of the very best public domain and shareware programs available today... Sound Monitor Professional, Cyrtabor, Atari DrZ}um Macine, Jump, How To Meet Cows, Howfen, Omidor, DeskTop V1.5, etc, etc, etc. As well as this, you get a 30-40 page magaziZ}ne / newsletter (when you print out the .DOC files). This high level of quality will be maintained and even improved upon asZ} Futura develops throughout the 1990s. Futura issues 1-6 may be copied and passed on by any individual as long as there Z}is no exchange of money involved! If you run a PD Library, please write to me, enclosing your Library listings and costs, toZ} request permission to place Futura in it. This way, I can ensure that 8-Bitters are not over-charged for Futura. I have noZ} desire to make a large profit from Futura and do not wish to see others do so at the expense of the user. Taking FuturaZ} out of the public domain was a very hard decision to make. However, as I have already stated, I MUST ensure the future survZ}ival of the mag! The first few issues of Futura have travelled all over the world. Unfortunately, many who have received anZ}d enjoyed an issue have not taken the time to send to me for the next issue. I have therefor had to follow the same path as Z}those at Mega-Mag and take Futura out of the public domain. In summary, please consider supporting Futura by either sendZ}ing for a single issue or a six-issue subscription. Check out the very favourable reviews in Page 6 New Atari User Issue 59 Z}(p36-37). Prices for Futura are as follows:UK Orders:Disk - 1.956-Issue Disk Subscription - 11.00Printed Copy / CassetZ}te - 3.953-Issue P.Copy / Cassette - 11.00Back issues are available for 1.50 each (3.00 cassette).(Cheques/POs payable tZ}o S.J.MURRAY)International Orders:Disk - 3.006-Issue Disk Subscription - 17.00Printed Copy / Cassette - 6.003-Issue PZ}.Copy / Cassette - 17.00Back issues are available for only 2.50 each (5.00 cassette).(All prices in UK pounds.

I produce Futura in my spare time. Each issue takes 50-70 hours to complete aZ}nd many keyboard sessions last well into the wee hours. I do it because I love my 8-Bit. Futura will survive for a very lonZ}g time to come and will develop and improve along the way. My main goal is to produce a professionally printed newsletter / Z}magazine with an accompanying disk of original programs supplimented with the very best of current public domain software. IZ} plan to reach this goal by the end of this year. Hopefully, you will join me on my journey.The 8-Bit goes marching on!SZ}tuart J. Murray, Futura Editor.N.B.
