Compusense Flex Manuals

[bluearcus]

Having had a quick trawl through the archive it seems that there are few (none?) of the Compusense Flex product manuals digitised at the moment.

I have a couple here, and I believe Tony Jewell has a few as well. It would be good to get a list of what people have and try and get them digitised I think.

I have the following:

Manual for "Flex Utilities"
Manual for "Flex Basic for Dragon - Tandy Color"
Manual for "Dynacalc"

Hi Rolf,

Yes, I've been looking at a lot of the FLUG and Simon Wynn's collected stuff, but I was specifically hoping to see what we can accumulate in terms of the documentation that accompanied the compusense releases, as that seems completely absent from the archives.

Of course it will be largely covered by the generic SS50 machine release docs, but there are some things we don't have documentation for, like details of the Dragon hw specific adaptations. It would be good to fill the holes in the archive as far as possible.

I'm still plugging away at getting a complete re-engineered PL/9 language release for the Dragon and Coco, most of the way there, and that has all been done by referring to the generic SWTPC etc flex and pl/9 docs.

Cheers,

Mike
