Select CAVERNES from the Cassette menu. It can be a little tricky sometimes selecting it. Then type RUN in the main emulator screen and hit Enter.
The commands are

Re: Les cavernes -- TRS-80 Pocket Computer
Thanks Auraes. I've made some progress converting the program to Micro Color Basic:

The problem is that the game seems very difficult and the map seems arbitrary. Not sure if there are still bugs in it, that I ...

Re: Les cavernes -- TRS-80 Pocket Computer
Weird. So single numeric variables like A equate to ordered array instances?
A(1) = A
A(2) = B?
A(3) = C?
Or some such?
A(1) = A
A(2) = B?
A(3) = C?

Wrote too soon. Looks like it's not BASIC. Sorry. Can't help.

Have you seen this vid?

I'll look into getting the source somewhere and working on the bugs as I convert it to MC-10.

Re: Untangling Dog Stars...
In case you were interested I made a conversion fix-up of Dogstar Adventure for the TRS-80 MC-10 based on the TRS-80 Senior code. It can be played here by clicking on the screen:

Re: Les cavernes -- TRS-80 Pocket Computer
auraes,
Yes the hex hypothesis doesn't make sense if it's a memory saving measure. I'll have to dig into the intricacies of the language a bit more. Thanks for the bug warnings. It's going to be more complex than I thought. I'll get to it eventually.

Re: Les cavernes -- TRS-80 Pocket Computer
Auras,
4F looks like a hexadecimal number? But it could be some kind of shorthand notation for multiplication. Will have to search out a manual for the pocket computer.

Re: Les cavernes -- TRS-80 Pocket Computer
What a fascinating program. From my meagre French, I think I can read that it uses a special method of entering the list of descriptions into variable memory (rather than by traditional READ/DATA statement approach), so as to conserves memory. The main program itself is highly condensed using every ...
