Real Commander 2.0

ZXNet echo conference «zxnet.soft»

From Pawel Kislyak To All 15 April 2001

Hello All! A beta version of the subject has been released (latest compilation 4.15). There were beta versions sent to several people who wished to participate in debugging the system and writing the first modules. If anyone else wants to participate in the project, welcome to Netmail, please state what module you would like to write. There is no normal documentation yet, the system is still at the debugging stage, there is only a brief description of some subroutines taken from the RC source code. An example would be the source code of an already fully written PT3Player module. Yesterday Imperio angrily tested the modular RC system on buggy ;), loaded three PT3Players and forced each one to play their own music (it never occurred to me ;), opened RamDisk at 512k and copied the files there ;). Sometimes it crashed ;), it turned out to be a glitch in RamDisk's formatter, who has version b4.12, blames him for all freezes ;). You can be a pioneer in writing modules for RC count Sergey Krinitsin (2:454/11.64), who is almost finished writing 800k disk driver, the disk is formatted with kilobyte sectors and when loaded driver, the commander sees it as a regular TR-DOS disk. Bye! Pawel@nm.ru realsoft.nm.ru [RC 2.0 60%] [ZX] [Real Software]

We also need a module to work with an ISDOS disk. I'd even like it I would write. But apparently later - because to use real zx I won't, and the Z80S doesn't work with .fdi yet :( How is work with modules organized in the subject? What can be done from them? How much memory is available to them? How independent are they from the subject (for example, printing on the screen, keyboard, etc.) ? Best regards, Evgeniy.
