Get It Right!
From Just Solve the File Format Problem
Get It Right! by Richard Vanner and Andre Willey for Atari is a type-in program checker used by Atari User magazine.
It was ported to BBC Micro by Steve Turnbull and Archimedes by Paul Dellar for The Micro User magazine.
It outputs a table with the line number and a decimal checksum.
Get It Right! II is faster, more compatible and easier to use. It also changes the checksum to a three-digit value with both numbers and letters (but no zero, one, two, eight, letter I or Z) and includes a cumulative check digit.
The BBC Micro version uses four hex characters plus a cumulative check digit.
