CSAVE"..",A will save in ASCII, but it's still wrapped up in tape block headers/footers. With a decent text editor it's quite easy to strip all those headers, but there is now an easier way. If you try the latest XRoar snapshot from here , you can run with "-lp-file filename ", and then type "LLIST"...

What happens on a real CoCo 3 if you point the IRQ vector at a routine like the one below which RTI's without first clearing the interrupt condition with a lda $ff02. Does it (a) seemingly cause the computer to do nothing other than update the IRQ routine (like any real CoCo 1,2 or Dragon) or (b) c...

My own collection is rather small: 4 x Dragon 64, 1 x Tano, 1 working Dragon 32 board, one not working. For some reason the only box I've kept is a 32 box with polys, even though I have no 32 cases. I have two DOS carts, one proper DragonDOS, one PNP equivalent. Both have SuperDOS E6, one also has D...

Weird, I just downloaded it (20110110 snapshot, right?) and tested under wine, typing "AUDIOON:CLOADM" to load a game and it seems fine! I'll try and find someone around here with proper Windows to test.

Well it doesn't work for sampled audio input, only CAS files, but the latest snapshot actually does this And yes, there's a plan to make it work for everything, just needs done in a different way.

XRoar will load in ASCII BASIC files directly if they have a .asc or .bas extension, so you can edit stuff in a normal text editor, then load it in as-is. You might prefer to use the latest snapshot (the 2011 dated one here ) as it fixes a bug with reattaching tape files that could otherwise make te...

I was going to offer a spirited defence about making the game playable with only a joystick so you could hide the computer away, but that kinda crumbles when you need the keyboard to start the game. But yes, thanks for this clean-up, it does make it a lot more pleasant! Of the bugs you fixed, do you...

I'm pretty sure Mamou does (part of toolshed). Also LWTOOLS.

Yeah it does seem a little unclear... (2) and (3) should be the same unless (2) refers to a modified emulator. I guess we wait and see!

This might be interesting: http://www.6809.org.uk/tmp/da/tests/ It's a small (really hacky though) bit of code that tests timing things off various VDG signals (FS rising & falling edge, HS rising & falling edge). I used it to adjust the timing of XRoar, and was reminded of it by discussion in the "...
