      From: gids.rs@sasktel.net              > > Sort of. I got SPLIT working under Prodos (originally only worked under       Dos 3.3) that creates a functioning environment for Applesoft in Aux memory.       It basically allows one to run Prodos in main and Dos 3.3 in Aux and switch       between the two. Or        Prodos in both Main and Aux and have separate programs running in each. It       could potentially allow one have a program in every bank of a Iic or Ramworks       IIe. The only bad part is that the text screen has to be shared between them       or memory set aside to        save or restore text or graphics screens.       > This is RaThEr interesting, is split your creation?        > does it only work for the applesoft interpreter? or for prodos        > sys apps too?        > this would be rather decent loaded into a ROMX slot.              The original SPLIT program was in Nibble magazine, but only worked under       Dos3.3. It took some doing to get it to work under Prodos. I don't see any       reason why it shouldn't work with a System file, as the driver is stored out       of the way that a system        file can't stomp on it and only taps into the JSR at $BF00 which is used by       every MLI call. The driver doesn't require Basic.system at all and could be       installed as a system file itself, which then launches the actual System       file, the same way Prodos        launches Basic.system which then launches STARTUP.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
