RUN
SNAP
PROGRAMS
The
RUN SNAP PROGRAMS allows the
running
of programs written in
the
SNAP
language,
that are stored in
the
HHC 's
File
System
.
Programs may be written
in
SNAP using various computers and
then
be
"
downloaded
"
(sent into
the HHC) by
various means. including the HHC
Modem
and
RS-232C
peripherals.
using special
capsules designed for this
purpose.
It
is
expected
that
the
SNAP capsule
for
the
HHC will be able to develop SNAP language programs accessible through
the RUN
SNAP PROGRAMS menu entry
also.
Since this
item
is available
in
every HHC. it
means that you can
use
SNAP programs
in the RAM
of your
HHC.
without having to
own the development tools that are necessary to create
the
programs.
When you select the RUN SNAP PROGRAMS menu
item, the
HHC displays a
menu of
lhe
SNAP programs
contained
in the memory area selected
with
the 1
/
0
key.
Pressing the key
for
one of
these programs
starts
the program
running
,
in
the
same
way
that
selecting
a capsule
program from the Primary
Menu
beg ins that
capsule program.
If
you press
while you
are
running
a SNAP program, you
will
return
to
the
RUN
SNAP PROGRAMS
menu.
If
there
are
no
SNAP
programs in
the
Current
Memory
area,
you will see
"
NO
FILES"
instead. Press
twice to
return
to the
Primary
Menu.
Note that only SNAP programs are shown
in this
special menu. The
names
of these
programs also appear
in
the
File
System
menu,
where they may be copied
,
renamed,
and
deleted. However,
if
you press
•
while the name
is visible you will
see the CAN'T EDIT
message,
since
SNAP
files are
programs,
not
text.
BEYOND THE PRIMARY UNIT
Let's
take
a brief look
at
some
of
the ways you can extend the
power
of
the
HHC.
WITH THE 1/0 KEY
Capsules
The back of your HHC has a removable door
behind
which are sockets
for
three
HHC
capsules.
These
capsules
are
the ultimate
in
size
reduction
for program
cartridges using
ROM
(Read Only
Memory).
Capsules
can
also
contain
data
for use by other
peripherals-
voice
synthesizing,
for example. And some peripherals contain
their
own capsules-e.g ., the
Acoustic
Modem and
the RS-232C. Instructions
are
in
the
manuals
for
the
individual
peripherals
and HHC capsules.
A
continuing supply
of new programs will
be offered as they are
developed.
Peripherals and the
At
the
left side of your
HHC
Primary Unit
is
the area
for the
connection of
1
/
0 Adaptor
peripherals.
Any
one peripheral can
be
connected directly
to
the side of
the
HHC.
That
peripheral
would
be
shown as
connected
to
slot 0 in
the
1/0
Menu.
