VDK to JVC/DSK conversion tool

A little utility I wrote to use when I want to flatten a VDK into a DSK or JVC.

Re: A DOSPlus Extender for Drivewire & CoCo-SDC

Hardware I think, because FujiNet requires an internet connection and the main issue at the moment is that the Coco Fujinet implementation relies on the bit anger serial port...

Re: microvitec cub monitor

I think it's difficult. Cubs are RGB-TTL only, unless you have an unusual model. That means you need an RGB output solution, and one that's tweaked for TTL levels. To get RGB of any kind out of a Dragon requires a particular rare model, or some internal or external converter kit. And even then that ...

Windrush D-bug

This disassembler / monitor cartridge appeared on eBay a couple of weeks ago. Did anyone win it, it does anyone have a copy already?

Be good to get it archived Windrush's tools were generally pretty good ...

New tool: MPI cartridge copy

Noddy little disk based tool for copying autostart cartridges using MPI and CoCoSDC or other DragonDOS compatible disk system. For when you don't want to crack open the Cart and read the EPROM, or mess around with masking the *CART line, but do have disk system and MPI available! Start Dragon with D...

Compusense Edit+ for DragonPlus - Cartridge

This is the rather unusual DragonPlus cartridge version of Edit+. Few people who bought a DragonPlus would presumably have NOT had disk systems, so I can't imagine many copy of this version were sold.

Re: My Unworking Speakeasy

Hi Peter, At the moment, it's more of a mystery than a pantomime I think. But give it time, as I haven't had the soldering iron out yet! I will continue my investigations... My unit makes noises on power-up, but it always eventually hangs the Dragon when attempting to print to it. I still hold that ...
