More high speed cassette routines in "The Rest of 80" book: "Faster Loading for the Model I". They come with a rather extensive discussion of how the...
... Well, the next step is done. Today I wrote a program to move SYS0/SYS and CONFIG/SYS into fixed locations on hard drive cylinder 0. This will make it...
... Thanks I'll check for these sources (I have more software and docs/mags. than I have an overview over/remember about). Some searches on Ira's site gave...
Bill, Do you have a binary dump or *cas file of the Stringy Floppy Data I/O program? I was just about to dump mine to a WAV file for getting onto a virtual...
Terry, I don't know.? What is it called?? My ESFOS wafer is bad, I have never been able to load it.? Maybe I have a copy of this program on a different wafer. ...
Hi Bill It's called the Data I/O program and it's necessary if you want to use @CLEAR, @OPEN, @INPUT, @PRINT and those other commands associate with data I/O...
This brings up another question and it may be a stupid one, but I have several wafers with programs on them. I'm wondering how I can best preserve the files....
David, Do you have a working ESF and TRS-80? If so, it very doable. Matthew Reed's emulator can load in WAV files as cassette input. I've found it quite...
... Status update: the new BOOT/SYS is done and working. My current version only requires 213 of the 256 boot sector bytes; reading from a hard drive is a...

(Apologies for Cross-Posting) Hi, Tonight a friend of mind dug out his long stored Exatron Stringy Floppy and wafers, and we managed to image the elusive ESF...
