I would like to add my best wishes to everyone for the New Year. Tom's reference to 'snowy' reminded me of this recent Canadian news item. Many parts of...
Hi Mark, thanks. Even though I already owned some TI equipment I got in the 80's, I was lucky to collect quite some nice TI equipment in 2007. A very good...
I'm having trouble with detecting the end of a file in this progam: 10 OPEN #1:"DSK2.FORTH1",INPUT ,DISPLAY ,VARIABLE 80 20 LINPUT #1:A$ 30 IF EOF(1)<>0 THEN...
Mark, I think that you have to test EOF before LINPUT. See page 82 of XB manual. The following should also work to replace lines 20 to 50: 20 IF EOF(1) THEN...
Something else to consider....if you do a lot of programming in XB, the program TShell is very nice. It gives you resident, common, disk management commands...

Hello all, hope you all made it safe and well into 2008. Greetings! Yesterday, MESS 0.122 came out, but it does not contain the latest fixes for the TI...
Michael, I have an earlier version of MacMESS and the ti998.zip file which contains the emulation for the 99/8 doesn't even work at all.. Everytime I try to...

For you, Mark, you can now select raw files when you save. :) For Kaldb, I switched to the Classic99 palette. It'll be a while before I can work on that...
... Actually it went over my head. I did not suspect the new mode at first, when playing around with Convert9918. Nor did I raise that much of an eyebrow, when...
Hi Jacques, I tried that also, still doesn't work... Here is the EXACT program I am using: 10 OPEN #1:"DSK2.FORTH1",INPUT 20 IF EOF(1)<>0 THEN 50 30 LINPUT...
No, the XB manual indicates in the code examples that any non zero value will work, hence <>0 (I did try your recommendation though... Same result) In actual...
... contains the emulation for the 99/8 doesn't even work at all.. Everytime I try to load the 99/8 it gives me errors that some files are missing and if it...
Hmmm...It works just fine an a real 99/4A. I added the PRINT A$ just to make sure I would see what was being READ by LINPUT. No errors. It ALSO works just fine...

Mark, I have entered your program on my real TI and it works fine. I have even removed '<>0' from line 20 and I get the same result. My shortened version also...

James, My apologies. I didn't have time to investigate your suggestion right away, and I also forgot to mark your post for later follow up. Anyway, the answer...
After removing the TI circuits that were "hanging-on" to the "Y" output I can only report no improvement. I had hoped that the TI circuits were loading the...
Here's an excerpt from a very interesting 1994 review of the Game Writer's Toolkit that I came across recently. The review was written by OLUG member Charlie...

Mark and I have been searching for this program for over a year now, so this is a good time to remind others to keep looking for it. Mark would like to redo...
