# Memotext Review

Detailed review of the Memotech ROM-based word processor for the TS1000. Describes the machine code ROM design, full ASCII character set, formatting commands, search-and-replace, and a ‘data pages’ feature for mailing lists. Notes incompatibility with the Timex 2040 printer and difficulties with the Memotech RS-232 interface and Epson MX 80 connection.
