Jeweler is Bejeweled-like Game written by Jim Gerrie for the Radio Shack TRS-80 MC-10. The attached Dragon 32/64 version of Jeweler has been directly converted from the original MC-10 version.

Thanks! A Dragon 32 compatible version of the MC-10 Solitaire game is attached.

Virtual MC-10 v0.73c (May 2008) can also be downloaded here. Is there a later version?

(3) Are you saving them normally or in ASCII (,A) format?

(4) Does your cassette recorder use Automatic Gain Control?

The Prologica CP-400 (CoCo Clone) uses the PAL-M TV system. My question to the hardware experts is - If you were to run a program on the CP-400 that detects the difference between PAL and NTSC by counting interrupts (Like MDetect ), would it be (incorrectly) detected as NTSC or PAL?

This is a copy of my MDETECT (Machine Detect) example program from 2006. This program started life being written as an example to help James Mckay when he asked for help with machine detection during the early developing of Glove. MDetect v1.0 (inc source code) was originally posted in the old (now ...
