#DISASM.BAS (Again!) Message #102228
From: Phil Wheeler Model 100 SIG · Tech Notes & Util. November 27, 1985 10:03 AM
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…
DISASM.BAS Message #102210
From: Phil Wheeler Model 100 SIG · Tech Notes & Util. November 27, 1985 2:17 AM
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…
#102156- DISASM.BAS (DL4) Message #102208
From: Phil Wheeler Model 100 SIG · Tech Notes & Util. November 27, 1985 1:50 AM
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
From: Phil Wheeler Model 100 SIG · Tech Notes & Util. November 27, 1985 1:27 AM
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
From: Phil Wheeler Model 100 SIG · Tech Notes & Util. November 27, 1985 1:04 AM
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.…
#100255 QUIET KEYS Message #100612
From: Phil Wheeler Model 100 SIG · Tech Notes & Util. November 14, 1985 8:38 PM
I had the same reaction, Peter. It turns out the new feel annoyed me more than the noise — so I removed all of them (except the 20 or so I have under the NUM key to freeze it, and the ones under SPACE & ENTER). All a matter of…
#88341 spread-sheet Message #88389
From: Phil Wheeler Forum unknown · Sched/Busnss/Home August 8, 1985 12:12 AM
Martin, 1. I think Lucid, a ROM chip spreadsheet is the best available for the Model 100. It's fast (m/l), flexible and occupies no memory. Screen works out amazingly well — and I've made some pretty big sheets with it (11×17", with Epson compressed print). Files are very memory efficient,…

From: Phil Wheeler Forum unknown · Text, SIG August 7, 1985 10:41 PM
You really can't, Alex; has to do with the Model 100 operating system I'm told. BUT — there is a workaround. Use GRAPH-P instead (press GRAPH key and P at the same time). So for an epson you do underline by: U/L On : (^P)(ESC)(-)(1) U/L Off : (^P)(ESC)(-)(GRAPH-P) where…

Well, I don't have a problem (not that one at least) 'cuz I don't have a Model 200. I was trying to help out by giving M200 advice based on my M100 experienc e; apparently they don't work the same, at least from your message. I hope the fellow who…

Your implementation looks real nice, Jim. I can't test it, of course, but …… . By the way, what do you use as an assembler in your program development for M100/200? Phil

Henry, take a look at LFEED.200, a new file in DL4. Does both printer and comm port linefeeds. Phil

JIm, the added features question intrigues me. There are some things I had in mind — so I'll put together some thoughts, and upload a message. Good job on the LF pgm for m200 (the name is about 3 screens up)! I will replace the old one with — no,…

#88329 #200 PRINTER CODES Message #88331
From: Phil Wheeler Forum unknown · Text, SIG August 7, 1985 6:35 PM
They are likely to work the same, Doug. There is a caveat, though — the embedded printer codes (as I remember) have no effect if you print a file using the 'SHIFT-PRINT' approach. You must be using a print program such as the ones in DL0. I suggest you ask…

From: Phil Wheeler Forum unknown · Text, SIG August 6, 1985 11:39 PM
Thanks for bringing the problem to my attention, Dick. I despise programs which make me reset my Z-150, particularly since I have to key the time/date in manually. Let me know if there are any other peculiarities; it's a fun challenge (well, up to a point, like 3 am or…

Dick, there is now a new version of FLTIBM in DL1. It fixes the bug you found (I hope); see FLTIBM.DOC, also new. Let me know if my surgery did the trick! Phil

Go to DL4 and get LINEFD.200 to add LF's at printer port. If you go serial out the RS-232, get UPL-LF.200 in DL1 Phil

Dear Jim, indeed! Some tile for a thread. Jim, since you have a Model 200 and I don't, it would be good of you to take my Mod 200 UPL-LF.200 poke in DL1 and your LINEFD.200 of DL4 and make a single progam that does both (in the manner of…

Another note, Mike. There is a minor bug (ughh!) in FLTIBM which needs to be fixed in the next upload, of any version. It can be demonstrated as follows: 1) Send a file, IBM to M100 in a normal way. 2) Send a second (can be same) file, IBM to…

Mike, I've managed to simulate the Hang-up. It happens if you don't have the Model 100/200 in the receive mode when the IBM starts to send. At least, that's how I made it happen. And you have to have already sent a file to have this happen. Of course, if…
