============================================================
I propose to work on a new project - a brochure: "Sketches in
programming in assembler Z-80" (working title).
What is the need for this kind of brochure/book?
- This has never happened before and does not exist yet;
- I myself would need such a brochure (and as it turns out now, not
only for me);
- I’m not used to asking people whether this is necessary at all, otherwise we wouldn’t
We also saw the Paragraph. We need to act!
What will it look like?- About the same as the newspaper Paragraph, only thicker.
Who is the author?
- I myself will be one of the authors;
- I invite all interested parties to cooperation.
What do I offer for cooperation?
- I can’t offer anything for a couple of procedures, just a mention of your
authorship;
- One/two copies of the future brochure for a significant contribution to the cause;
- Become a distributor of this brochure, but at your own expense.
What are the release dates?
- Nothing can be said in advance, but we can say with confidence that this
It will take at least a year, possibly more.
Approximate content:
+++++++++++++++++++++
Introduction (from the author/s)
1. Arithmetic (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, roots, powers, sin,
cos, etc. Can work with large numbers)
2. Calculation of addresses on the screen (attributes, pixels)
3. Working with sprites (address calculation, sprite output, mirror rotation and
etc.)
4. Poll of keyboard, joysticks
5. Sounds (AY, Beep`er)
6. Working with text (output, calculation, compression, ALT, WIN, KOI encodings,
embedding color in text, font formats)
7. Compressors/decompressors (primitive and short)
8. Working with extended memory (its calculation, ports of known computers,
page switch drivers, universal driver)
9. Working with printers (ports, testing, printing)
10. Working with the drive (error handling, fast drivers)
11. Testing hardware /its presence and generally working with it/ (hard drive, CDRom, mouse, modem, printer, joysticks, GS, DMA, processor, AY, turbo/not
turbo, Cmos, etc.)
12. Little tricks (XOR A, ADD hl, -x, etc.)
13. Big tricks (maybe this includes displaying the screen outside the frame and
etc.)
14. Miscellaneous (all kinds of short procedures, maybe the same
extinguishers/dampers from ZX-Review, etc.)
15. Ideas (here you can simply describe some ideas that, in their own way,
volume would take up a lot of space, it is possible to combine the item with “large
tricks")
16. Literature (if possible, describe in the procedures where they were taken from,
or their authorship)
The content is not final, so it may change, be replenished,
get better. Suggestions are accepted.

Hello All.
Mon 7 Feb 02 Kirill Frolov -> All:
Studies in programming...
It looks like a library of procedures, only on paper...
It’s not clear who to discuss this with here if the author doesn’t live here?
Maybe we can chat here, and then someone will forward one?
Then immediately criticize:
1. There is no clear concept of the idea
2. There is no taxonomy in sections/subsections
3. There is nothing about the rules for designing a pp (form, language, characteristics)
4. Poor timing of the project launch
Thank you for your attention.
Excuse me... That is, sorry already, Evgeny...!

Don't be afraid :), the author is present here and reads everything himself!

No, the idea is undoubtedly cool, we need to support it not only with talk but with action!
For my part, I can give information on the DMA UltraSound Card, but the truth is that all of it is already
It’s been on the Internet for a long time... On the site zx.da.ru. If you need anything else...
Best regards, Dmitry

Not really. The fact is that Alexander is not in love with GoldEd even after
After another crash, he just can’t set up the fidosh software again. He wants
something screwy. If anyone can and wants to help him in this matter, then write
emy to the address axor@mail.ru.
In fact, he asked me to forward everything related to this project.
