Files are sent as text whenever possible and may be split for several letters. Some files are sent to UUE only. FILE REQUEST RULES: Write a letter to one of the addresses: 2:5030/827.2@fidonet.org 2:5030/946.25@fidonet.org 500:812/1.507@zxnet In the name field indicate ZX-FAQ, in the subj line indicate the name of the topic and the file will be sent to UUE or by text. But there is a limit of 16 requests and 48kb per day. List of aliases: %help - How to use ZX-FAQ Server %list - The latest FileList You should not request many files at once!_WARNING_! For users of real BBS on a real spectrum You should be very careful about the amount of information requested! Your BBS may have a disk full - don't request too much. X-BBS works for /vicomm/ users in St. Petersburg on which all of the listed files are available. (in summer there may be interruptions in work, opening hours from 00:00 to 03:00) If you have anything to add to the mailing list, send it to me. You only need to send: - Source texts of programs in the form of text in 866 encoding. If your compilers use other storage methods BE SURE TO DECODE program texts into TEXT. Any programming language. A clear description is required texts sent (what is needed for, requested resources, build script for large projects, compilers used...) - Diagrams and descriptions of various modifications of the ZX-SPECTRUM. Text only in 866 encoding and preferably only text, but you can also use various graphic files or other methods presentation of information. - Descriptions of the algorithms of various programs for the Z80 or ZX-SPECTRUM text in 866 encoding. Graphic formats are not recommended.
