Typical loading screen of the "CPCDATAB" program launcher
The program launcher in action—"L" to load or "S" to load and run

Databox is the name of the additional cassette or disk which contained the programs of one issue of the CPC Schneider International magazines, published by DMV.

Type-in programs in CPC Schneider International had a checksum on each line, which could be compared to the output of check464.bas, check664.bas, or check612.bas, respectively, as each line was typed in. This was especially useful for entering long DATA statements with hexadecimal numbers—the usual way to include machine code in type-ins.

In this article we try to collect all the databoxes of this magazine and provide a short index of their contents. If you own a databox from an issue that is not collected here, please contact us in the CPC Wiki Forum and help us to collect all databoxes.
