Re: Hi - just checking
just tried to use the 80 column text editor for cpm fo rthe sam its absolute rubbish! the cursor keys on the pc keyboard dont even work and the screen refresh takes ½ an hour to keep up! dont we know anyone who managed to pull off a 128k conversion for teh sam they wouldnt need to bother with anything too complex tasword was only 64kb for the 128 machines its just the paging that needs altered? what do i need to do disassemble it and then go thru looking for all the outs that correspond to the speccy 128 ram out port? how do i do that surely the edit find thing on the pc can do most of that? i only liked using it because you could use the original speccy 32 column mode which was legible as the 64 dolum used only 4 pixels! utterly illegibly - shouldnt be too bad on the timex or the sams 512 mode though depends how close your nose is to the screen! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oX3blkwNjLUfeature=related sam juggler theres a few others on there too these are not quite so related unless we ever manage to bung an r800 up the edge connector! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1DfDEU_Ifrw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGH5JIPWQ2I http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1DfDEU_Ifrw 2009/8/1 nev young pasiphae1...@yahoo.co.uk: Roger, was this meant to come to me rather than the mailing list? But to answer your question; I rather doubt it as he has moved on from the 8 bit world and now works for a medium sized ISP type of company.

I know you've all taken your Sam's to the beach and so no activity on the group. Dunno about the beach. I was searching for something in the loft this week and found four complete Sams and about 3 in bits. It made me feel a little sad. I'll be going to Gloucester in August and will be seeing B*b. Br*nchl*y as his daughter is getting wed. Nev

Re: Hi - just checking
Hi Roger, Could I ask that you don't sent your posts direct to me *and* the list. I'm on the list so I'm seeing it all twice. It all appears to be about cp/m, of which I know nothing, so I have to ignore it twice ;-) Thankx Nev
