#102228-#DISASM.BAS (Again!)
Message #102261
Phil: Gollee! Wierd and unpleasant woes & unthinkables have surely been after you over the past few days indeed! In a nutshell; there is nothing wrong with the program. I've downloaded the file with ead and XMODEM protocol via the Tandy 1000 and with Mortimer using both X-TEL (Read &…

Ummmm, that's not legal, is it? Thanks for the bugaroonie and I'll put it on my list with the 2 or 3 others. I'll get around to upgrading it someday… Happy Holiday – Mike

#TDD FOR NEC 8201
Message #102258
Don: Thanks for your candid reply. There's one huge hitch with the PIC DD, even considering its sophistication: It must be attached to the same buss as the CRT adapter. Thus, if you use the disk drive, you can't drive a monitor. The monitor, to me, is more of abenefit.…

Hi Charlie! Welcome back, if only for a few days. Didja ever receive the E-Mail I left you re: DVI files? CIS did not report it as undelivered. If you did not receive it I saved the message on disk & can reupload to E-MAIL. Happy Thanksgiving to you &…

W'alaykum a sala'am! Inta ta kalam arabi?!! I have really enjoyed this little 100 but have spent more time on the company's Wang OIS-60 and PC/AT's at work. Somehow the 100 gets relegated to the word processing I can't get to at work. This thing drives my new Olympia daisy…

Barry: Very interesting about the problems folks are having. Phil Wheeler has been going nuts with the file and I have a long message to prepare for him, but I've downloaded the program six different ways over the last three days with no problems at all. Still czeching … .^Dave^.

Tim: Generally, "as a matter of course", Tandy reads all messages now that they are the SIG sponsor. However, due to the holidays I know that Tandy has temporarily moved to Kansas and may miss some scrolling messages. Therefore, I'll store this thread in the database for Tandy to pick…

-+WMS3+- The Write ROM is indeed a super fine program; with a Tandy 1000 on my desk the Write ROM is preferred for heaavy duty jobs — multiple copies with special formatting of many different kinds. Write ROM will NOT read/write to disk, therefore I follow my standard practice of…

#102229-#RAM problem
Message #102238
OK, it appears you've isolated the problem to the chip… suggest you return it for a replacement. There should be nothing in a program that affects a chip… there is an old saying in computer circles that goes something like this, "Software can't hurt hardware". Meaning, nothing you can type…

Thom, thanks for an excellent addition to the idea … (sysops) can we assume someone from Tandy will read this as a matter of course or should we leave a message specifically addressed to someone? Thanks, Tim.

Dave, UPLed PICTUR.DOC, BAS, and LDR into DL1. It's been a while since I've UPLed, but I think all is in order. Let me know if I forgot anything. The program is fun. Give it a try! Regards, Jim
#tmpc/chipmunk
Message #102231
If you use the TMPC.CO file as you suggest, how do you clear it out of upper memory when you want to use the upper memory for CDOS or another machine language program? FUTIL.BA will do two things: (a) load a .CO file into upper memory, automatically delete it from…
#RAM problem
Message #102229
I removed the 8K expansion chip and ran TICKLR.100 (the calendar program) a number of times, turning the machine on and off. Seemed to function without problem so it may in fact be the expansion chip. Is there anything in these programs, however, that would be affected by the addition…
#DISASM.BAS (Again!)
Message #102228
Dave, I just looked at DISASM in my Model 100, and the TAB's in the xmodem'ed file were fully expanded into real spaces in my "Read" download yesterday — hence the long lines when trying to load into Basic. A thought: If you are doing YOUR read into the T600…

Dave: I told Dave Utter he could use S75665,312 in DL1 to find files uploaded by Marv Miller. Is this correct, as it doesn't seem to work any more? Please tell C. Davey how to do it, as we're headin' out of town for Thanksgiving Holidays… Happy Thanksgiving, Dave! Bill

Jim Irwin [72346,1020] has come up with a terrific m/l version of PIX100.DMP in DL1. It is faster than I ever expected, both when putting an FBI picture on the M100 display and when printing it to any 9-pin matrix printer with an 8-bit graphic interface (Epsons, Stars, Okidatas, Toshibas…

#WRITE ROM
Message #102221
My girlfriend has a 32K M100 and Chipmunk disk drive. I am thinking of suprising her with a copy of PCSG's WRITE ROM for Xmas, but have some conserns about the product. What are the reactions of other WRITE ROM owners? Is it compatable with the Chipmunk? Does it interfere…

#102164-Super ROM
Message #102214
Everything's tied together in the ROM, so it's one of those "all or nothing" affairs. In the two weeks interim, you might want to take Dave's suggestion on the freeware here called "Thinkit". Best Regards, Mike

Yes, ynoT indeed! The latest version of TELCOM.CO is 1.2 (I think). Saw a mention of it in the last week or so, no official notification of it at all. Yes, I too get almost weekly flyers from PCSG… So far I've had about 50 opportunities to order a Chipmunk,…

About the commented listing of Tcomp.121… I want to see it as soon as possible!!! I'm amazed that people haven't pressed you to submit it! But I'd like it even sooner than that. Since I already have the program, transmission errors won't be a problem… can I just download it…
DISASM.BAS
Message #102210
I just downloaded wiht xmodem and took a look. On printer and screen of the Z-150 (& M100 this afternoon), the file appears to have several 260 byte lines. BUT many of the spaces are, in fact, TAB's (09hex with debug on the z-150. That may cause the Basic loader…

Thanks on the double F1 key. Guess it's those obvious things that go right by one, huh? Should've known. So what's the latest TELCOM.CO version? Are they not keeping me abreast? Sure get alot of promotional material though. On TERM.MR1… I wasn't planning on tackling that right away. But it…

Dave, take a look at 102182. Message is my text, with Bert's PPN. Most strange. Also — my upload was at 2310 pst or so — 3 hours or so after the time indicated. Gremlins! What gives? Phil p.s. — now count 261 bytes in line 9040 of disasm.bas. Most…

disasm
Message #102205
Just gave it a try at 1200 baud. Lines 9040,9050,9060 came without line numbers! That explains the long line (stuff after 9030 looked like part of 9030). I haven't tried an xmodem download; but that shouldn't be required. FYI — first 300 baud download was before 1800, in non-peak hours.…

#102156-DISASM.BAS (DL4)
Message #102202
sorry about the false alarm, Dave. Could have been a bad download, but the first of those lines was 255 in Basic in my M100 — and the last 4 characters from the DO file had been chopped off, leading to a DS error on each of four load attempts.…

Yeah, I'd like a dermatological sample… should be female, about 5 ft 4 inches, maybe 120 lbs… In a well preserved state, no more than 35 years old, and half-way intelligent. Hopefully, it'll be fully animated, and self-ambulatory. (grin)

Thanks for the comments, Neil… being in the industry, you have a much closer finger on the pulse of what's going on. I did, in fact, corrupt the TDD DOS in high memory by using MSPLAN as Thom had indicated… it required a good-size spreadsheet, as apparently it writes downward…

Nec Disk Drive

My experience with the NEC disk drive has been excellent. It supports both sequential and random access files — and provides a disk capacity of 320K (3 1/2 inch disk). Pretty expensive, though. ***JOE***

Fascinating, Mike! We have indeed become a nation of BASIC bit-twiddlers! Do you imagine there's any hope that Microsoft BASIC will be outlawed in our lifetimes?
