@~First some help wanted by:
Peter Clark, by email

I have just acquired a second hand Amstrad 6128 plus computer and
want to use Protext Word processor with it. Unfortunately my copy
is on a ROM in a ROM box and I cannot find a satisfactory way of
using this with the Plus machine. (Connections are different). If
anyone who has a copy of Protext for the 6128 Plus on disc would
like to sell it to me please contact me at 459, Bramford Lane,
Ipswich, Suffolk, IP1 5JH Tel: 01473 749987 or e-mail
clarkpg@btinternet.com

Thanks a lot, Peter Clark

@~This was just too late to go into the last issue.
@~And from a new reader, who liked SynTax but had a few
@~suggestions:

Peter Smith, by email (extract)

...I wonder if I dare offer some suggestions - which I won't be
offended if you pass on. Firstly how about doing SynTax as a HTML
document or set of documents? The advantage might be more
portability. But then again what you've got works and if ain't
broke don't fix it is a very good motto (which I ought to pay more
attention to.)

You list a good number of games in the reviews and hints etc -
what do you think about listing the kind of game in the main list?
I'm more into graphic and text adventures than RPGs (I'm not
knocking RPGs and those who play them, it's just not what I'm
into) so this would help me as I browse through Syntax.

I'm interested in establishing connections with people in the UK
who work on the tools for writing Adventure games. When I read
books or watch films or play games I have an urge to get in there
and do something myself (particularly if the book etc wasn't very
satisfying.) The only thing is artistically I'm bankrupt so the
programming side is the only side for me.

@~Do any of those suggestions appeal to more of you? As for Peter's
@~last point, contact him at Peter.Smith@nanning.swinternet.co.uk
