Re: [M100] Got RexCPM working and CP/M, too, now what?

Laddiealpha and DLplus do the same thing, they're just different implementations of the server/disk side of the tpdd protocol. There are some differences in how they map to/from 6.2 filenames and how they deal with misnamed ASCII BASIC files. Probably some other features. But for most functionalit

[M100] Got RexCPM working and CP/M, too, now what?

Wow, that was harder than I expected. I had to read through a ton of stuff, but I finally managed to get Rex back on the menu and CPM with the hotkey...Now, I am trying to remember why I got Rex in the first place... seems like I was cramped with 32k (I doubt it, but the modern in me feels it o

Interesting idea. A peephole optimizer that self generates with maybe a recursive backtracking algorithm. I think it would be a little tricky? First you have to define "equivalent code." Executing code changes the state of the cpu registers including flags, the RAM, and has side effects on I/o spa

Does anyone know if there is a superoptimizer for the Intel 8085 (or maybe for the Z80)? A superoptimizer in this context is a program that takes as its input an assembly language source code file and then it tries a brute force search of all possible machine language instructions (up to a certain

Hi Guys, I hope it's OK to resurrect an old email thread. My DVI Gotek is still working well with my T102, but I've added a T200 to my collection and I'd like to add a disk image for the T200 onto the Gotek. I still haven't figured out how to create a disk image, so if anyone can help to either

What a great thread! :) Very late to the party but will add a couple of books. Not M100-specific, but if you’re interested in a couple of very good general 8085 books, I would recommend these. The first is a self-contained course (probably a quite popular textbook originally), while the second
