Ben, Here are my understanding of the points raised by your questions. First, a Basic program is identified as a program file by having a >01 at byte >0C of...
You are correct about "Monster Cables" --> a total RIP OFF! Monster Cable Price: 2 m. length - 6.56 ft-2M 127. MC 700HD659-00 $79.95 ea. My Cable Mart Price: ...
"My Cable Mart" is also a reasonable priced resource for the the following computer cables; some of which can be used by the TI99/4A & the Myarc Geneve 9640. ...
This goes into the category of something that I'm sure I knew, but seem to have temporarily forgotten: When a EA5 program is loaded using the EA module, are...
EA5 programs have to assume that no EA utilities are loaded, and supply their own. From: ti99-4a@yahoogroups.com [mailto:ti99-4a@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of ...
Thanks Barry, I went back to the E/A manual and reviewed the section regarding the loader. I had assumed that the loader did both EA3 and EA5 files, but it...
I kludged together a nice catalog loader for xb using one of Barry Boone's ea5 loader routines from way back when. It was the most reliable. I believe that I...
Sorry, one other question while on this train of thought. If I wanted to create my own set of utilities, apart from the other program code and AORG the module...
Hi Ernie, The EA module is a GPL app and runs from GROM. When you load things via EA5 you can pick about any portion or portions of memory normally available ...
I received word today from the son of F. Rodgers deCordova of his passing away. He was a true supporter of the TI-99/4A. I have inserted into the OLUG's In...
My eBay monitor purchase arrived by UPS today. As a result, I am up and running on a REAL TI system once again - no emulators. I might even set up my second...
Whoa whoa! Stop! You're getting far too complicated! May I humbly make the recommendation that you don't bother with EA option 5 stuff for now, just concern...
Thanks Mark, I have the program, with the embedded utilities (vsbw, vmbw, gpllnk, etc) in EA5 format and it runs pretty darn good (IMHO :-). However, I want to...
<snip> Since my program is AORGed to high memory it will likely get stepped on by the first program image file that is loaded. </snip> Correct. I'm guessing...
... Rather than write your own version of the utilities, what I did was cheat and save off the Editor/Assembler's utilities loaded into memory as a loadable...
I had the opportunity to meet him in 2000. He was a great fellow, very friendly, and helped me way back in the early 90's as well. He will be missed :( Jon...
Well, everyone - The prototype DSDD Hexbus floppy controller (wire wrapped) was powered on today with a 220>120V converter, hooked to a CC-40 and to a 5.25"...
You've got it all wrong. What you need to do is reverse engineer, produce, and sell the darned things. Man, I'd LOVE to have my hands on mass-storage for a...
Never met him, but spoke to him on the phone a few times. Seemed like a real nice fellow. The ti world will miss him. ... From: "Tom Wills" <tom.wills@...>...
For a DF80 file, you call the LOADER (see EA manual). For a PROGRAM file, you can simply setup a pab with a LOAD opcode, once in VDP memory, parse the 6-byte...
Andy, Check out the Cambridge Z88. The best portable computer ever produced. I've got 3 of them ;-) http://www.old-computers.com/museum/computer.asp?c=279 ...
Mark, are you a collector ? ;-) I think you lately got hold of a spectrum ? Have you got a TI-99/4A ? ... Karsten (just curious) ... produced. I've got 3 of...
I guess so, but I'm not religious about it! Yeah, I've got: 1 4A console - PAL (boxed) 2 4A console - NTSC (boxed) 1 48k Spectrum (original rubber keyboard -...
Actually, I can now cross off the Commdore Plus 4 from the list!!! I just bagged a *bargain* on Ebay! Check out item number 250332200973 He he ;-) It's my...
