Hi guys, Hope this question isn't too low level, but this was bouncing around my head last night and lost me a couple of hours sleep (as if I didn't have...
Hi JC, Under vz basic you had up to 34k to play with. Exactly how much you had was called the "top of memory" or tom. The highest possible address was 0xFFFF. ...
Cheers Guy Sounds cool, is the VZ technical reference manual available anywhere without rummaging through my parent's attic in a possibly fruitless search? JC ...
Guy (et al) I guess, also, the question I am asking is one of garbage collection. Did VZBasic eventually leak, did memory retain a concept of scope and clean...
Lots of useful stuff here, including the tech ref manual http://vzalive.bangrocks.com/archive/ _____ From: vzemu@yahoogroups.com [mailto:vzemu@yahoogroups.com]...
I don't think VZBasic was capable of memory leaks, all variables were global and stayed in scope for the entire runtime. You could declare new variables ...
Leslie, Actually finally got around to digging out the box on the long weekend. Seems I kept all the books (pretty much all the VZ books ever released...
Last attempt to hand off a techref manual before I chuck it. Gotta cut down on stuff before I move back to Sydney. -- http://www.BangRocks.com/ - the Bangrocks...
I'll give it a new home if it's looking for one. PM me. ... From: vzemu@yahoogroups.com [mailto:vzemu@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Jason Oakley Sent: Tuesday,...
Hi Andrew et al, Same here, couldn't get hold of him via the phone a couple of mnoths back (I think) and so sent an email. My impression of Bob has always been...
Hi Jason, Why on earth are you moving back to Sydney ? I moved to Qld in 98 and I doubt I will ever return south on a permanent basis. Leslie. ... From: Jason...
Hi Matt, All I can say is Argggghhhhhhhhh !!!!!! 99% of the time believe it or not it is the paperwork that is the most valuable (oh yeah and the disk drive)....
... /dribble mode on/ Heh! I'll wander over to the big smoke sometime to visit and say a hello to me now non "in-a-relationship", and then when I get all...
Lots of friends and family down that way. Not much up here at all. ... -- http://www.BangRocks.com/ - the Bangrocks network. http://CafePress.com/aquotik - My...
Leslie, Hmmm how I wish I had a disk drive still. I believe I sold that to Joe Leon back in 1990 sometime. I also had a modified VZ300 with hi-res graphics and...
Hi Matt, Good fortune with the tapes, I've managed to accumulate a lot of originals but am having trouble loading them. I've had a couple goes at transferring ...
Matt, ... Yes, please do! Its about the only bit of original DSE software that is not yet transferred over to work on an emulator. Somehow for some reason I...
... Sweet! Now to transfer it over you need to do something like the following. (This is from 2000 using NT4, so might be a tad bit out of date) Richard's...
Cheers Guy Thanks for the pointer, really enjoying the manual, now I can (sort of) actually understand it. ... Behalf Of ... anywhere ... you ... was ... ...
Makes sense. So whilst an app was running, you could run out of memory, but nothing would be running chewing up memory in the background. Thanks for the...
... Worse still with the likes of the ZX80, ZX81 and others that I can't remember... The video screen memory was part of your normal RAM. So as you typed in...
