As you can see, almost all of the I/O features have been removed in the DEMO.
It also lacks the keyboard help screen and the documentation, so a few words
on the topic are well spent.

First, the DEMO version automatically loads the popular Manic Miner game
permitting to verify the ML compatibility. To start the game, just do a
RANDOMIZE USR 33792 from within BASIC (i.e. T EXTENDED L 33792).
We suggest to play in monochromatic mode (F1 key) and with no background
music (press ENTER when the game begins).
In order to allow the game to survive the RESET, the Emulator does only
a NEW instead of a fully RESET. If you want the standard BASIC environment,
simply do a RANDOMIZE USR 0.

Some of the F-keys have been allocated to special functions, others takes
the place of Spectrum's special key; the followings key are active in the 
DEMO version:

 	KEY	MEANING
----------------------------------------------------------------
	F1	Go to monochromatic video mode
 	F2	Go to colour 1 video mode (faster but jerky)
	F3	Go to colour 2 video mode (slower but smooth)
	F4	Choose PAPER colour in mono mode
	F5	Choose INK colour in mono mode
 	F9	Copy ROM in place
 Ctrl + F10	Do a Spectrum RESET
	~`	BREAK
	ESC	EDIT
	TAB	EXTENDED MODE
	ALT	SYMBOL SHIFT
	DEL	BACKSPACE

Other keys retain their usual meaning. Note that most shifted keys do not
correspond the their Spectrum equivalent; this is confusing but inevitable
to maintain close Spectrum compatibility.
Note also that the numeric keypad is fully functional; on A500/A2000 key-
boards you can enter any of the ()/*-+. symbols from the keypad.

In the DEMO release, all BASIC commands are operative except for the
LOAD/SAVE family. These lead to an immediate system reset.
In the standard version, these commands do their job either on tape,
following the Spectrum's tape format both on loading and saving, or to
any valid AmigaDOS device, at user's will.
We cannot however emulate the plethora of Turbo Loaders out there, so no
Turbo format is supported. Sorry.
