Thanks to those who contributed their thoughts to me on this! I am encouraged to venture to modify some DOS source to conduct console I/O over an RS232 interface. For that, I need some DOS source (asm code) to modify. I saw some DOS source in an ANALOG article a while back (I have the issue at home), and rather than type it in, is this (or any other public domain ATARI DOS asm source, for that matter) available for downloading from any known bulletin board systems? It could be for MAC/65 or any other 6502 assemblers because I can employ "sed" or "awk" scripts to do the major translations of these sources to my "PseudoSam" source format for my PC-compatible. I logged onto about half a dozen BBSes in New Jersey last night, and all I could find were .COM files, which I would rather not disassemble. If anyone is interested, I would be glad to post my final code to comp.sources.misc and announce that posting in this group. Or, if anyone would like to work jointly, I'm game! By the way, the discussion on the RS232-SIO cable connection in this group is very interesting! If anyone would like to share knowledge on this, this seems like the type of RS232 handler that makes the most sense to me from an end-user cost standpoint, assuming other people would be interested in using the Atari ROS (RS232 Operating System).

I saw I suggest MYDOS; the source is in the public domain, and you can get it with a mini-assembler (which takes the same source as Atari's AMAC, except without macros). I took copies when they were posted here several months ago. I could figure out how to repost them if you get desperate. And now a MYDOS technical question: How is the mem.sav part of MYDOS loaded? Also, is it loaded at boot time, or when you enter "DOS" from BASIC? <Generic winter solstice greeting> -Stan

I have it, and would be happy to set my home Atari up as a BBS so you can get it. If no one offers a source closer that California, give me a call. 707 539-4991
