Regarding Jeff’s comment: “TSDOS does its own thing, like John says, and really makes a mess of it.”: Could it be that TSDOS got away with it due to inherent delays in reading data from a disk? Reading from an SD card should be much faster and not have those delays.Just speculating…

Re: [M100] - Backpack

Well, I count a cassette or TPDD (or the DVI for that matter) as part of the stock 'closed' M100 system, with TELCOM only able to transfer plaintext files in and out; xmodem and DLplus changed that and that's where the trouble started. Back in the day it was never an issue; everything was

Re: [M100] - Backpack

"you would only have tokenized files on the M100 itself" Or cassette files, tpdd files, xmodem'd BA files tsdos sending to desklink, etc. ;-) But I think I know what you mean. It is mostly a closed system until you start transferring to a foreign host. Then you can stub your toe on this problem.

Just tried out BOOT.BA and it works pretty well. Only thing I don't love about it, is that you need to re-enter the Time/Date after removing Disk-BASIC. I think I'm going to modify it to store the current date/time in ALTLCD before clearing the ram, as I think that location ought to be protected.

Re: [M100] Removing DVI Disk Basic

I never noticed that, but I just tried it and you're right, the dvi needs the system disk on every power-on, not just for installation. -- bkw On 3/2/23 09:20, grima...@gmail.com wrote: I guess the need to pack the Disk BASIC away is pretty limited, since when the DVI starts up, it loads

Re: [M100] Removing DVI Disk Basic

I guess the need to pack the Disk BASIC away is pretty limited, since when the DVI starts up, it loads software into it's RAM from the system disk, the same disk which you can use to load Disk BASIC to the M100. So even if you were to pack and reload Disk BASIC, the DVI will be useless without the

Re: [M100] - Backpack

Not sure what you mean? What's the bad habit? The idea of using .BA for plaintext BASIC files and .DO for text documents made perfect sense in the old days. Keep in mind that a stock M100 can not transfer binary files such as tokenized BASIC or .CO, so normally all files transferred would be
