my drivewire adapter from Tormod arrived since a few days... But i haven't spend time to test it, yet

I came to the conclusion that it would be better to contribute to the origin "applepy" project, instead of fork and change it. Therefore, I make a fresh start here: https://github.com/jedie/PyEmulator/ I have started to split https://github.com/jtauber/applepy into a Apple 2 specific part and a gene...

Have you got around how the dragon's basic generates the line pointers? Otherwise, you can only save ascii and be able to load it again. Which isn't bad anyway... No, i don't :( My Idea: A offset + length of previous line? But a fixed offset makes no sense, because it's too "restricted" :?: I will ...

Where can i find information about quotes, double quotes, escape in BASIC code? In Python this is possible: print "normal" print 'normal' print 'foo " bar' print "foo ' bar" print "foo \" bar" print """foo " bar""" And a few more. The output is: normal normal foo " bar foo ' bar foo " bar foo " bar ...

That's clear. What not clear is the AND 0xFF thing. ...some min later... Ah! for i in xrange(250,265): print i, i & 0xff output: 250 250 251 251 252 252 253 253 254 254 255 255 256 0 257 1 258 2 259 3 260 4 261 5 262 6 263 7 264 8 It makes that the value starts from 0 after arrive 255... OK, then it...

Python is fast enough for the most problems. it is nevertheless too slow, you can get speed if you use special binary libraries for some parts, e.g.: numpy Maybe a solution is PyPy with JIT-Compiler to get more speed. Python is very Backwards-/Forwards incompatible. The biggest break is v2.x to v3.x...

For every block you have to sum all bytes from the block, plus the block type number plus the size of the block and do an AND 0xFF. Then you check the calculated number against the checksum byte (that is, the last before the trailing 0x55), and if they are the same, theoretically the block is Ok. D...

Thanks! Maybe the people from there would like the same

I found the Apple ][ Emulator written in Python here: https://github.com/jtauber/applepy I looked into the source code and wondering how "simple" it looks. (compared with other emulator code) A interesting video from the author is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EhK5JNx0irA I forked the code an...

Is on my TODO ;) I add a command line interface with https://github.com/jedie/PyDragon32/commit/1a2426eb76b4eb2575b49a67a8c89d14c28e036f : usage: PyDC_cli.py [-h] [-v] [--verbosity {0,10,20,30,40,50}] [--logfile {0,10,20,30,40,50}] [--hz_variation HZ_VARIATION] [--min_volume_ratio MIN_VOLUME_RATIO] ...
