The enclosed tape will include almost all the improvements from the manual except where they are no longer appropriate (the machine code sort makes the block sort outdated), or improved by my own routines in Extensions, or one case where you may not want it included. For those who want it, instructions are included here to add it. Also, the changes required for a full size printer are only partly included. The basic is not included since some of my customers do not have a regular printer and the part of the machine code which varies according to the interface used is not included ¢the other machine code is). More detail is given later in the text.
All the changes required for the machine code sort is included from Tom Woods’ Breakthrough newsletter with his Kind permission. This was necessary for all my routines to work without problems.
Finally, the changes found in the first three issues of Extensions are also here. Those applying to the Spectrum conversion and microdrive must be entered by the customer as described later.

It is rare, but I have had occasions when a program did not load in correctly because of a power spike or something. Keep the backups until you feel confident there are no problems.
