Re: Alcatraz 2 (Microdeal)

The instructions are available in the "cas" download section of the site. It may be a better idea to create a wave file from the .cas rather than struggle with cleaning up your wave file.

Re: Tano Dragon with saturated colors

There's a "Channel 3/4" button on the back of Tano Dragons, what happens when you press it? Does one NTSC channel give a better display than the other?

Re: Unboxing brand new Dragon 64s.

Its still the same machine. :) If you have a UK Dragon 32 or 64 power supply, 5 pin DIN to SCART video lead (available from eBay ), and suitable TV set, you can use a Tano Dragon 64 here in the UK. I'm aware of this but if it was a Dragon Data machine then it would most likely be available in this ...

Re: Perilous Pit by Blaby

That was fast! Great work! ;) It certainly was, it looks like I missed the boat with my offering but I did eventually succeed in getting it to load. I got it to load in XRoar with the "-no-tape-fast" option so it is likely that something in the recording was tripping XRoar up in fast tape mode. Com...

Ditto "IO error" (input/output) here rather than "OM error" (out of memory).

Re: Unboxing brand new Dragon 64's.

Arrgh those are Tano Dragons! You got my hopes up there that it was still possible to buy unopened Dragon Data Dragon 64s.

Re: Programming the 6809

The "Show cover page in two-page view" option is not enabled by default, so I'm reluctant to change the PDFs in the archive. That's Adobe for you, there was a time when their Reader dealt with two-up page views in a smart manner with cover pages being shown on their own (equivalent to "Show cover p...

Re: Programming the 6809

Hmmm... I moved the back cover the page 2 to mimic the way O'Reilly creates their PDF books. I wonder why they do that, it seems an odd thing to do. In both Adobe Reader and Foxit Reader, both books show correctly in two-page side by side view with odd pages to the left. The first double-page is th...

Re: Programming the 6809

Thanks again for your efforts Rolf but the two PDFs are still displaying with odd pages on the left and even pages on the right. This is because as well as the insertion of a blank page the rear page has, for some reason, moved to become the second page.
