What To Do After You Hit Return is complete

Hi everyone,

I’ve completed the conversion of the listings in What To Do After You Hit Return and posted it all on GitHub. This is perhaps the largest collection of HP TimeShare BASIC programs outside the HP collection itself.

There are some issues to consider. One is that the printer they used has what appears to be identical 1’s and I’s, and I expect there are any number of instances where one turned into another. The same for ( and ) vs. [ and ], as HP BASIC allowed either. The printer also simply printed on the last space if the line ran long, so there are some places where the end of the line is one big overstruck character, but most of those I could figure out with the exception of one line in Star Trader.

I definitely expect errors, so please send me your pulls or report bugs.

Enjoy!
