where x.xx represents the version number,

The program

The Help information
is
not loaded
into
the computer's memory together
with
the program.
It
is
only read from the Archive cartridge when
it
is
needed.
You
should therefore not
remove the Archive cartridge from Microdrive

Figure
2.1
The
main display with a monitor. (80 characters)
If
you are using a domestic television, the screen
is
arranged slightly differently. This
is
because a television
is
not normally able
to
show clearly 80 characters per
line.
Archive
therefore only shows
64
characters.
The screen
is
divided
into
three sections: the display area, the work area and the control
area.
