Select “load user-disk from code” in the emulator
Paste the first section of code in
Paste the second section of code at the end of the first
Paste the third section of code at the end of the second
Press ENTER
Press and hold the SHIFT key
Click the BREAK button in the emulator
Release the SHIFT key
Watch the video!

the fact he had the patience to do all of this is insane.

It wasn't that hard. I just went to the repo of the program, got the SDD or something, used rokcoder's converter, and put the savecode here.

Found an interesting behaviour in backspaces with double tall text while fiddling with this small program I wrote:

10 A% = INKEY(0)
20 IF A%=-1:GOTO10:REM no random blank chars
30 IF A%=1:VDU141:GOTO10:REM ctrl+A to double tall
40 IF A%=13:VDU13,10:GOTO10: REM CR (return) to CRLF
50 PRINTCHR$(A%);:GOTO10:REM print other inputs

, where backspacing double letters doesn't fully erase them and you can type over the remnants.

Another program that you can mess with double tall letters in is this:

VDU141,13,10,141:REM make following line from BASIC double tall

, where you type with double tall letters for a line.

Well… Since this technically doesn't run on Scratch, has anyone managed to make DOOM on this? Seriously, DOOM can run on anything.

Doom wasn't even a twinkle in someone's eye when the BBC Micro was around. Nor would the BBC Micro be powerful enough to run it without modified hardware.
