This is caused by the following test added to the start of the Dragon BASIC keyboard routine.

Code: Select all

BBF1 7FFF02   CLR   $FF02

Re. Calixto speed, read the section under the heading "Do you have any interesting stories from your CoCo days?" near the end of this Bob Withers interview. :D

I wasn't able to find it in the toolshed repo.
thanks

That's an old, broken link you've got there (thanks Sourceforge for not providing redirection of old locations...). You can search "toolshed" on sourceforge.net then click Code and you'll find: http://sourceforge.net/p/toolshed/code/ ... ee/hdbdos/
I tried downloading the source code from the mercurial with "hg clone http://sourceforge.net/p/toolshed/code/ ... ee/hdbdos/ E:\TOOLSHED" (as instructed here by KenH) but it fails and displays the following message.
abort: 'http://sourceforge.net/p/toolshed/code/ ... ee/hdbdos/' does not appear to be an hg repository:
---%<--- (no content-type)
repoparentpathcommittool_subscribedtarball_urltree
---%<---
!
Using the old URL "hg clone http://toolshed.hg.sourceforge.net/hgwe ... d/toolshed" has always worked perfectly. Why does it fail with the new URL?
