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

You can use MZ-700 program languages too if you use the MZ-700-mode.

Hisoft PASCAL Compiler for the MZ-700 / MZ-800 / MZ-1500.
ISO PASCAL-standard with expansions.

HISOFT PASCAL 4T ( HP4T ) is a very quick, user-friendly, and powerful version of the programming language PASCAL, as described in the "PASCAL User Manual and Report" ( 2nd edition, Springer publications ) by Katleen Jensen and Niklaus Wirth ( Professor, retired ).

Documentation is available and will follow later.

REAL FORTRAN was distributed by BBG ( BIALKE - BERENDSEN - GLISZCZYNSKI / Ahrensburg / Northern Germany ) and it is available for the MZ-700 / 800 / 1500.

Documentation ( german, PDF ) is included.

There is no information available about this FORTRAN Compiler.

AIP - LOGO ( german version ) for the MZ-800.

LOGO tries to realize the idea of creating a programming language for children and pupils particularly for an easily entrance into the world of computers. Hereby the turtle graphic is of great importance. This kind of graphic makes it possible to view the effect of instructions and programs directly on the screen.

The turtle is a cybernetic object which moves on the screen like a real animal. His moves can be controlled by the commands RECHTS ( right ), LINKS ( left ), VORWAERTS ( forward ), and RUECKWAERTS ( backward ). For example, the following LOGO procedure draws a square:

PR QUADRAT
  WIEDERHOLE 4 [VORWAERTS 50 RECHTS 90]
ENDE

The turtle will move four times 50 steps forward and then it moves 90 degrees to the right. The result is a square.

It is possible to design special interface-similar programs for the communication with very young childs or handicapped children.

LOGO is a highly developed programming language and with it very much ideas of artificial intelligence can be exhausted fully. LOGO's structure of procedures differentiates substantially from LISP and is the ideal entrance into the artificial intelligence.
