iS-DOS + GUI

Hello, Maksagor This is not for Spectrum. This is only for some monster clones and emulators. Having such capabilities, you can also run CP/M. And there are C compilers for it, which humanity needs.

Hello, captain cobalt cap> This is not for Spectrum. cap> This is only for some monster clones and emulators. cap> Having such capabilities, you can also run CP/M. cap> And for it there are C compilers that humanity needs. What does it mean not for Spectrum? Not for 128k+AY+TR-DOS? And what is "some "monster clones" that can work in the Chic system? And that's almost all other models: Scorpion ZS 256, KAY-256/1024, PROFI 256-1024, ATM-turbo 2+. Yes, these are the main models that have long been very, very a significant share of the remaining active Spectrum fleet. And, by the way, under They can actually be launched by CP/M and they are launched! But what does this have to do with it? A In general, this smacks of another “holivar” like “xxx vs yyy”, so I suggest not to develop this direction. But in general, I have never advocated an “all-Spectrum” bright future absolutely for all owners of any hardware that is somehow related to ZX. I - for the maximum development of the technical characteristics of iron while simultaneously their maximum software support. Therefore, I deliberately move away from the scheme "128k+AY+TR-DOS". Now, in my opinion, the bare minimum should be - 256k+disable ROM+AY+TR-DOS+HDD". Those who have less - let them be content with the minimum configuration of programs:It is impossible to satisfy absolutely everyone. Although, of course, if possible, why not. In short, if anyone joins the development of GUI for TASiS, you are welcome. Even If you don't have ATM, it's no problem, we'll come to an agreement. So, AlCo started writing under ATM, and He got this car.

Hello jdigreze Yes, I thought that too for a long time :) in principle, there is nothing impossible here. PS // we still have to figure out the extension of the file system over 16MB :) which is also basically real.

Hello jdigreze By the way, no one can throw the ugly is-dos format at me? that is, actually what header or whatever else should the file with the level for installation have? set.com program?

Hello demon_zx There was this info somewhere... I probably don’t remember now, but I can send it to you for soap all I have... ;)

Hello Ronin Ron> PS // we still have to figure out the extension of the file system beyond 16MB :) Ron> which is also real in principle. Offtopic of course... But, I have ideas, I’m thinking... There’s only one problem - getting stuck existing concept, with the possibility of "piecewise" caching. If only I had time like 10 years ago... ;)

Hello jdigreze No, only this information is specifically needed. and about the expansion of fs, personally I’m still I use a program that substitutes the required cylinder numbers for the required ones drives into the screw driver. And expand on “linking the existing concept, with Possibility of "piecewise" caching" is possible?
