Out of curiosity, how many people out there would be interested in a book about Assembler languagee techniques under Prodos? I started writing one tonight just for laughs. It covers intercepting the Reset vector, identifying devices available, intercepting character output, intercepting character input, relocation routines, the BASIC.SYSTEM commands from assembly, MLI commands, the BASIC.SYSTEM bitmap, interrupt processing, advanced programming techniques, and whatever else I think of before I finish. I'm thinking of calling it Advanced Apple Assembler Methods, the guide to Advanced Assembler under Prodos 8. I'm thinking of "publishing" it in elctronic form only, an electronic book so to speak. -- Michael J Pender Jr Box 1942 c/o W.P.I. I wrote SHELL and Daemon, greyelf@wpi.bitnet 100 Institute Rd. send bug reports, suggestions, greyelf@wpi.wpi.com Worcester, Ma 01609 checks to me. People keep asking me if Shell or Daemon are compatible with the IIc, IIe. YES, I wrote them on my Laser 128. I mean, what would be the challenge to multitasking on a IIgs? I'll start writing dedicated gs programs when somebody sends me one in the mail.

A book full of info such as what you suggest would be a good idea in my opinion -- just to have everything all there would be pretty nice. I remember back when I used to use the old //e all the time I made a card file with all the neat little tips, tricks, methods that I found out in my hacking. I wish I knew where that went -- it had some GOOD stuff in it.
