Yay! The Rex arrived, and it's everything I'd hoped. It looks like it also came with a copy of Cluseau, which is a pretty nice BASIC debugger and assembler/debugger.
Being able to switch option ROMs on the fly is super handy. (Use Clouseau for editing and debugging BASIC, then switch to TS-DOS to upload the code to storage.) So now that I have Rex working... I definitely need one for the 200 when it arrives. Tom Wilson wilso...@gmail.com (619)940-6311 K6ABZ On Sat, Mar 14, 2020 at 4:00 PM Tom Wilson <wilso...@gmail.com> wrote: > True.
