BBC Microcomputer System - Technical Specification - Issue 3, September 1981

This document provides an outline of the facilities offered by the BASIC interpreter. Other documents will provide details of other aspects of the total system.

The BASIC interpreter works through one of three file systems: a cassette file system, a disk file system and a network file system. The user can easily move between file systems and can pass complicated commands direct to the file system while in BASIC or any other language or environment.

The BASIC interpreter will contain an assembler as in the ATOM computer except that different characters will be used for hexadecimal notation and for 'immediate'. A screen editor is incorporated.
