Attached below is Radio Shack's EDTASM+ which has been converted for use on the Dragon 32/64 by Stephen J. Woolham. A copy of the original EDTASM+ manual is included.

The most powerful assembler ever written for the CoCo 1/2 is now available for the Dragon.

DragonDOS/SuperDOS uses memory from $00EA to $00F8, and from $0600 to $0BFF.

Yes. The secondary interrupt vectors are exactly the same as the CoCo 1/2.

I think reading from stdin on Windows needs special attention. stdin is by default opened as a text stream, so various conversions would happen on Windows. Try adding this to the top of main(): freopen(NULL, "rb", stdin); EDIT: Added to git Its still not working correctly. C:\cas2decb <formx9.cas >...

It compiles OK now. But its not working correctly. C:\cas2decb <formx9.cas >formx9.bin Program "FORMX9 a?@" loads at 0x3F00, execs at 0x3F00 Could not read next byte after offset 0x02E6 The modified source code and compiled win32 binary are attached. EDIT Attachment (cas2decb_test1.zip) removed.

Thanks, Tormod. The only one I can't compile with gcc is cas2decb.

cas2decb.c:24:17: fatal error: err.h: No such file or directory

so now i have come up with a couple of VU meters incorporated into the routine..... (these use text mode block gfx).... i have no idea if the "normal" screen on a dragon starts at $400 ???? - my coco II (no dos) does, so the meters are plotted at $420 / $460..... change the addresses to suit I like...

The following text was copied from the CoCo mailing list. I think I may have found a way to detect a CoCo1 vs a CoCo2. At least it worked in the very limited test of the two machines I have. Rather than look for the SALT chip it tries to detect if the machine has the custom integrated DAC chip. The ...

sweevo is for "the music box" not "the music studio"..... I know. it sounds allright in music studio on beepola, but you probably need to halve the pattern tempos for it to sound allright on the coco/dragon player.... I did halve the pattern tempos. I think sweevo9 sounds pretty good. But I'm NOT a...

Another one downloaded from the ftp link above. The v9 engine is included.

Yes. But they are mostly the same songs.

Here is one that I downloaded from the other (ftp) link you posted. The v9 engine is included.
