I also like it!

After the previouse poll I think this is exactly what we need now

I usually write TurboR.

Why's "grey brick" not an option?

I actually write turboR or MSX turbo R… not really consistent. Probably the latter is better. Anyway, if you look at the logo, it’s clear that ‘turbo’ should not have a capital t.

And yet, considering the current results, opinions about the correct name are mixed..

Having been corrected by Kuniji Ikeda on multiple occasions, I stick to turboR instead of the, e.g. MCCM standard writing rule 'Turbo-R'.

looking at the official LOGO, I'd say "MSX turbo R"

Over 80% thinks differently..

So, even when ppl could just read the logo, opinions are mixed!

This little MSX-Basic program ---how to write that?--- should help add some missing alternatives.

10 REM poll options generator
20 DEFINT I-N: M=5: DIM P$[M-1,5], T$[M], I[M-1]
30 FOR R=0 TO 4 :K=0
50 READ P$[R,K]
60 IF P$[R,K]<>"*" THEN K=K+1: GOTO 50
70 NEXT R: OPEN "CRT:" FOR OUTPUT AS #1
80 T$[0]="": N=0: GOSUB 100
90 PRINT #1, "Piet": PRINT #1, "grey brick": END
100 IF N=M THEN PRINT #1, T$[M]:RETURN
110 I[N]=0
120 IF P$[N,I[N]]="*" THEN RETURN
125 IF (N=1) AND (I[0]=0) AND (I[1]=1) THEN RETURN
130 T$[N+1]=T$[N]+P$[N,I[N]]
140 N=N+1: GOSUB 100: N=N-1
150 I[N]=I[N]+1:GOTO 120
1000 DATA "",MSX,msx,Msx,*
1010 DATA "",-," ",_,*
1020 DATA turbo,Turbo,TURBO,t,T,*
1030 DATA "",-," ",_,..,*
1040 DATA R,r,err,Eend,*

Change "CRT:" in line 70 to a filename to save the alternatives to a file rather than printing them.

The Japanese tend to write it as turboR and to be honest, I think they do it on purpose... Yet it's not really winning this poll, is it?

So, as soon as turboR comes out as a winner, we'll start a new poll
