Next batch of listings from Your Computer magazine comprises all type-ins appeared during complete year 1985. This make a third of a four-parts series. Probably, I'll finish writing the rest of type-ins info at the end of August, or maybe in September (EDIT: I had the chance to finish today, so you can see it posted). I need a lot of rest now...
However, the left bits will contain a minor amount of programs to be examined, as the magazine started that year reducing the amount of BASIC type-ins to half a dozen per issue. So, the last part of this list will have all 1986 and 1987 numbers until July issue. From that one onwards and until the end of Your Computer magazine, no more BASIC listings would be published inside.
I reckon this BIG list has been a complete hazardous thing to do. I admit that laying out the full type-ins list is proving to be quite daunting, as I had to copy everything from every issue by hand into a text document using NotePad and then copy-paste it to the blog and format it as needed. Not only that, the sheer number of programs published in the magazine was truly enormous.
For now, use this list as you wish.
