Okay, I'm writing a program, here's how:
FOR : Any Apple II with 128k, 80 col, and ProDOS 8
LANGUAGE: AppleSoft BASIC
WITH : Lots of & commands in BASIC, and lots of ML routines
I need:
The addresses to PEEK and the values of them for the IIgs.
(i.e.: PEEK(-1088) on an enhance //e is 224. unenhanced is 234.)
An ML routine to read the IIgs clock WITHOUT the TOOLBOX and
WITHOUT & commands...

You can peek the regular ProDOS locations for the date and time. This won't get you seconds, but it will work on any machine running ProDOS. There is *no* way to reliably identify a GS just by PEEKing. You need to JSR $FE1F after setting the carry flag. If and only if the carry comes back cleared, you are on a GS. See Apple II Miscellaneous Technical Note #7: Apple II Family Identification for more information. There is guaranteed way to read the GS clock without using the toolbox (why don't you want to?). Even the built-in ProDOS clock driver for the GS calls the toolbox to read the time. --Dave Lyons, Apple Computer, Inc. | DAL Systems AppleLink--Apple Edition: DAVE.LYONS | P.O.
