Well, I don't actually need any more "less than master strength" programs.  From
that era we have Cyrus (in that collection) and Psion available for running in
Dos, both are stronger than me I hate to say.

your pc to your Spectrum?  There is probably a way to do that, but I'll never
need to come up with it.
