Re: ROM Disassembly
Hi there. I am in contact with Simon Goodwin and have news. This is an extract from one of his last mails, where I asked him to to ask Andy Wright to make Masterdos free available: You asked me to check the legal status of MasterDOS with Andy, so I did: *** Forwarded message, originally from Andrew J A Wright at 17/09/03 *** Hi Si, ... MasterDOS binaries can be freely distributed. Not sure where the MasterBasic source is - I gave you a disc of something, but what was it? ... Why not get the same with ROM 3.0? However, I am in hold of the SAM COUPE ROM 3.0 SOURCE CODE, Copyright Andrew J.A. Wright 1989-90. But I know Wolfgang FvE wrote: How about making it downloadable until permission is denied?

Re: ROM Disassembly
I can respect that. But the file SAMBasicROMv3src.zip in ftp://ftp.nvg.ntnu.no/pub/sam-coupe/sources/ is not locked. The file I mentioned earlier SAM_ROM_v30_Disassembly_Annotated.pdf.gz in ftp://ftp.nvg.ntnu.no/pub/sam-coupe/docs/ however is. The first I already have and is also available on the samco news disks I was interrested in the later one because it is 1.8Megs Hopefully, someone can askIn the meantime I have locked the file again... :) -Frode Somebody ask !!

The ROM1 source shows Simon N Goodwin as the charset author, and he's certainly aware of the ROMs being distributed freely.

Re: Spec. ROM disassembly
Actually, something that is missing from my library... a fiver, you say? :) Yup... if you want it. On a different point, I figured recently that there must be quite a lot of SAM techincal info that gets used quite a bit but is hidden in the murky depths of the technical manual or various disczines, or nowhere at all, and I was wondering if it would be worth putting together some sort of SAM quick-reference sheets. Either a short (20 page or so) A5 book with all the key data, or a number of filofax-size sheets. What do people think? Andy
