All the downloadable files are ZIP-files and they contain MZF-formatted files. Additional TXT-files may be included. The file size shown includes the header size of 128 bytes. That means, the memory size used in the MZ will be the file size reduced by the header size.

The S-Basic MZ-2Z009 V1.0A for the MZ-700 is a standard 5.25" disk basic version ( completely new code ) and has its own RAM monitor. Up to 4 disk drives are supported. The ZIP-file contains two versions: 2Z009E.mzf is the original version, MZ-2Z009.mzf can be loaded from tape ( it has its own loader. Thanks to Bernd Krueger-Knauber ).

The file AUTORUN and the utilities FDCOPY and TRANS are included for download.

Documented assembler output of the Disk Basic MZ-2Z009 is also available. Original Sharp documentation ( ZIP, 324kb ). Take a note of the file READ.ME.

The K&P 80-column Disk BASIC supports the K&P 80-column card. If you own such card and if you need 80-columns per line then use this BASIC. The BASIC has the follwing additional commands:

SCREEN 0 The 40-column screen is the active screen. This means, all I/O will be supported by this screen.

SCREEN 1 The 80-column screen is the active screen. This means, all I/O will be supported by this screen.

INPUT, PRINT, CURSOR, CSRH and CSRV are influenced by these two commands.

COLOR and CONSOLE influence only the 40-column screen.

The logical length of a line on the 80-column screen is 80 characters. Physical lines cannot be concatenated to logical lines.

There are 2 versions available in the download file: V3.54 and V3.55. I do not know the difference between these two versions. Version 3.54 informs about 30985 free bytes and version 3.55 informs about 30956 free bytes ( see screenshots below ).

This is SCREEN 0 ( 40-column screen )

This is SCREEN 1 ( 80-column screen ). Version 3.55 informs about 30956 BYTES FREE.

Version 3.54 SCREEN 0

The S-Basic MZ-5Z008 is a standard quick disk Basic version for the MZ-700 or for the MZ-800 in the MZ-700-mode. It is based on the 2Z-009E and has its own RAM monitor.

Precision: 8 significant decimal figures ( e.g. 1 / 255 = 3.9215686E-03; 1 / 256 = .00390625 ).

The files AUTO RUN, DELETE V1.1A, QDCOPY V1.1A, and TRANS V1.2A are included. These files originally exist on the quick disk for the MZ-700. Side A contains the files AUTO RUN and MZ-5Z008 V1.0A. Side B contains the files DELETE, QDCOPY, and TRANS.

The original QD for the MZ-800 contains the MZ-5Z008 V1.0B on its side A and the application OPENING800 on its side B which is included for download too.

The original QD volume V1.0A for the MZ-700 ( side A )		The side B contains the utilities for the MZ-700.
The original QD volume V1.0B for the MZ-800 if in MZ-700-mode ( side A )		The original QD volume V1.0B for the MZ-800 ( side B ). It contains the application OPENING800.

This time only MZ-5Z008 V1.0A is included for download and I do not know anything about the differences between V1.0A and V1.0B. May be, there is no difference for the MZ-5Z008, but for the QDs which have a different side B. V1.0A works without problems on the MZ-800.

The QD V1.0A was sold together with the QD-interface MZ-1E14 and the QD V1.0B was sold together with the QD-interface MZ-1E19.

This is a universal BASIC written by the Dutch MZ-GG. It is a modified version of the 5Z008, but includes floppy disk commands too. A predefined BASIC program "START" can contain any commands ( e.g. DEF KEY etc. ) and will be executed when the UNI BASIC was activated.

This compiler compiles programs written in the MZ-700 S-Basic MZ-013A without the necessary of a floppy disk. It also has an editor. The German Instruction Manual is included for download ( PDF 4 pages A5 ).

The Compiler was written by Thomas Balz / Germany for BBG / Germany in 1984.

There are two further modified versions which were modified by a Dutch fan:

I've added this two versions for download. Please ask for an English documentation.

IBASCOMP ( original name ? ) is a BASIC interpreter combined with a BASIC compiler. It was written for the MZ-80K but it will run on a MZ-700 / 800 too. I assume, that not all commands are supported for these. Try yourself or look for readable commands in a hex-dump of the MZF-file. A short operation manual is included in the downloadable ZIP-file.

Read the complete description.

The XBC-compiler was written by Bryan Hayes / Germany for BBG in 1987 and can be used for the MZ-700 / 800.

A useful Basic tutorial for beginners distributed by Solo Software.

6502 interpreter for the MZ-700 / 800. German and English operating instructions are included.

I found a short description from a German advert. This program was written first for the MZ-80K. It enables you to execute 6502-programs on the MZ-700. An editor to develop programs is included, also a 6502-disassembler, a simulator to execute 6502-programs, and a feature to call and execute Z80-routines by a 6502-program.

BASICODE was developed by NOS / Netherlands ( Nederlandse Omroep Stichting ) around 1979 to exchange BASIC programs between different computers ( e.g. C64 to Sharp MZ's and vice versa ) without any hardware. The Dutch radio broadcasting service Radio Hilversum ( 1,008 kHz ) and later others ( e.g. the WDR / West Germany and the GDR ) sent BASIC programs over the air using BASICODE. Some tiny hardware ( interface ) was needed to transfer the software to the computer.

I have no documentation about this ( Dutch ) S-BASIC which is able to use the BASICODE version 2. It seems to be compatible to the S-BASIC 1Z-013B. The BASIC text area starts at $6BCF.
