Re: A DOSPlus Extender for Drivewire & CoCo-SDC

Hi, if you mean the last CoCo-SDC firmware version 1.16 from Darren Atkinson, I tested it before it has been distributed by Ed Snider just to be sure that it really worked with VDK files with a header 256 bytes long, as are all our VDKs for DriveWire. It works perfect, so we don't need to convert th...

Re: A DOSPlus Extender for Drivewire & CoCo-SDC

Hello friends, great news ... Darren Atkinson has been kind enough to send us an update for the firmware of the CoCo-SDC that allows working with VDK images with any header length till 256 bytes. I have tested the ones with 256 bytes that we use with Drivewire 4 and once stored in the SD card and in...

Re: Problems with DDOS12A and command KILL

Hi Phill, I think that some time ago someone added "PG Scott patches" to all Dragon Data DOS versions, so the standard DDOS11, DDOS12 became DDOS11C and DDOS12A Later, the DIR command was modified so that its output was much better despite this meant to break the 8k frontier, so if anyone wanted to ...

Re: DragonMMC

Hi Phill, very cool project indeed. Please, put me down for one production unit. I am interested in it, so I would gladly help by testing or whatever I could do ... Fortunately I am retired so I can manage a bit better my time ;-) Just one question ... Most of the tapes were easily dumped to disk an...

Re: Hello from Norfolk!

Hi,
welcome to the forum!
Hope you will find here a 'second' family ;-)
It seems that our first computer was our 'programmimg' school and certainly a lot of people
ended working in what had begun as a hobby. That is true for me too!

cheers

Debugging a real Dragon with NoICE - serial port

Hi all, I just wanted to share an interesting project I have had the chance to work on. I would like to program for the module Wordpak2+ (color VIDEO cartridge fro Dragon / CoCo) and this is going to be imposible to be debugged with GDB. It will need to be debugged on the fly, so right on the Dragon...

Re: DragonDos utility

Hi Rolf, you DragonDos utility works like a charm! We have a big bunch of orchestra90cc scores (2486 exactly) converted to binary .ORC files I wanted to group them in disks 180k and ended up creating a DOS macro that calls your DragonDOS much in the way Stew has shown in previous posts ... I just wa...

Re: DragonDos utility

HI Stew,
I did something like that and by now I have 11 disks (180K each) full of .ORC files!
My question was to know if there was a parameter or some trick to do that task
without using bacth DOS files ...

cheers
