create stand-alone programs.
(10) QBV4.ASM - Assembler source code.

ImagePrint commercial:
Since there is still room on the diskette, an ImagePrint demo is
included with REGISTERED B-WINDOW. ImagePrint is a product we
sell as User-Supported Software. It allows ordinary dot matrix
printers to print surprisingly good quality text. It accepts
standard ASCII text files as input and drives a printer in dot
graphics mode. To run the demo, you must have an IBM Graphics
Printer (or clone), Proprinter, Epson RX, LX, FX, JX or GX
printer etc. etc. (or clone). In other words, a standard dot
matrix printer with a 9 pin print head that understands the ESC
"3" and ESC "Z" control sequences. The demo consists of typing:
FONTDEMO
which expands a binary file (F.DAT) and copies it to your
printer.
If you like what you see, send $20 to Image Computer Systems and
you will be sent the latest version of ImagePrint, plus 6 fonts.
You can pay by check or credit card. We accept MasterCard & VISA.
