Hi Folks,
Has anyone ever considered or experimented with using a Atari 400/800
from a CPM based system? With the price of a Atari 400 dropping below
$300, it seems that the 400 would make a nice peripheral on a CPM
system. Could the ATARI OS (or DOS) be modified so that it accepts input
from a RS232 port, instead of from the keyboard? Could I read in ATARI
disks from CPM? Could I download programs into the ATARI, and then run
them? I would think that a 6502 cross assembler would be available under
CPM. If anyone has tried this, or has comments/suggestions, I would
appreciate your response.
Tnx, EdC70:info-cpm (07/13/82)

If you would like to be able to transfer files from a CP/M system
to your Atari using a modem or RS-232 serial port, get AMODEM21.BAS
from MIT-MC. It's stored in AR45:CPM;AMODEM 21BAS. Several companies
make 6502 cross-assemblers which run under CP/M. You could use a
CP/M system to develop programs for the Atari and then download
them using XMODEM on the CP/M machine and AMODEM21 on the Atari.
