I've noticed when trying out Cleusea ROM2 from my REX that the ROM doesn't
stay "installed" when I cycle power.
Is this normal behavior?
I just started playing around with this ROM, and since programming is
mostly what I use my ModelT.102 for, this thing is great.
I'm using the file named R2C1D.

According to Oppendahl's book, any ripple free DC adaptor between 3.3v and
7v, that can provide at least 1.1 watts, and has a center-negative 5.5mm
barrel connector will work.
6V is what is ideal, and apparently you can use a 6V lantern battery or
set of photocells in parallel will also work.

Where do I get whatever I need to add "screen 1" as a valid command?
It occurs to me that I can actually use PuTTY to be my 80x25 display while
I'm working my way up to building a vt100 connector.
Thanks,

Back in HS, I used the UCSD "P-System" Pascal compiler on our Apple][e

Wow, that's pretty cool. I have an old Palm III that I keep wanting to find

Does anyone have source to a LaddieAlpha type TPDD "server" program, but
written in Microsoft Basic?
I have this idea to have a CP/M machine (in this case, a recently built
Altair clone) act as a file server for my ModelT. This is obviously just a
"for the fun of it" project with little practical
alT had a lot of stuff in it, but I didn't know about that.
Thanks!

Nice! Thanks for posting those. I'll try porting them to Altair Basic.

I'm imagining a machine language routine that can replace/append a string

I'm still struggling to understand how this works:
10 a$="Code in ASCII"
20 call varptr(a$)
Doesn't varptr(a$) return the address of the string descriptor, which is
[len,lo,hi]? Wouldn't you have to synthesize the call address from
lo+hi*256?
Or is there something magical about how constant stri

A couple of notes:
After line 191 (term = i;), insert a break statement. This may actually fix
the extra null problem.
Change the declaration of the parameter in 147 to (char const * c). Do the
same on line 98. This will silence a lot of the warnings.

I'd also consider re-writing clear buffer to take a (char *c) parameter,

Sure, there are a lot of things I'd do differently if it were my program.

In my own random number based programs (for Traveller, not D&D, lol -
Traveller subsector generation is fun) I usually have a "busy loop" that

and then takes the next RND(1) value as my roll. This is the computer

Here's my simple treasure generator.
Once it's loaded, just type the letter of the treasure code.
You can type letters multiple times, and you can press a digit first, like
5g will generate 5 'g' type treasures and add them to the hoard.
ESC exits, SPACE clears the hoard. I have plans for more soph

The final number on that line should be an 11, then it works. (That is,
"ELSE 11", not "ELSE 13")
