TYPO (Type Your Program Once)
From Just Solve the File Format Problem
TYPO (Type Your Program Once) by Bill Wilkerson for Atari BASIC is a type-in program validator used by Antic magazine.
TYPO II pinpoints every mistyped line immediately after you type it and catches transposition errors.
TURBO TYPO II by David McLaughlin is a faster version
TYPO III by Alec Benson was released in June 1985 and generates the same codes as TYPO II and TURBO TYPO II but is even faster.
Versions of TYPO were also published and used by Page 6. ANALOG Computing also used a two-letter checksum code for their type-in programs they offered and was interoperable with Antic's TYPO II.
Generator kodów kontrolnych and Edytor BASICa are Polish programs compatible with TYPO II. KEYO is another compatible program.
