Space Attack (BAS), Virgin Books

Hi,

Here's Space Attack, by Gary Ryan, Virgin "Games for Your Atari 600xl", p47-54.

I've made one fix from the original print, which is that on line 700, the final character in the ? #6 is indicated as ctrl+Q, but should clearly be ctrl+E - it's a box for typing text into and ctrl+Q makes the top-right corner the wrong way round.

It's probably crept in because just before printing, they put special extra characters around the string to indicate they were control keys - looks like the printers couldn't do the full Atari character set. I've copied the REM statements exactly as they were written - even though that won't make quite so much sense when the actual print lines are already done as they should be.

ALSO, Shootout - you have this as taken from "More games for Your Atari 600xl" - I have it in the same "Games for Your Atari 600xl", ISBN 0863690378, p25-28. Not sure whether it's the the other book as well...
