$$$I$JV@NERVM.BITNET (William S. Kirchhoff) (08/03/89)
Summer is coming to an end, but I still have several projects at hand. If anybody is interested, or has written something similar, please drop me a note. (1) F88 : 80x8x Forth version 1.0b. This is the new public domain version of the Forth 83 standard. It uses sequential files and has an amazing amount of code (approx. 2 meg). I'm finishing up the interrupt calls at the moment. When the high speed video is finished - this is the default write, I'll post it on drycas.club.cc.cmu.edu. (2) Freemacs : Russell Nelson's public released emacs editor. I started writing the rainbow specific file, but ran back to finish forth. It will be nice to have a close GNU Emacs running on my old friend. (3) Mouse Driver that supports INT 33 calls. This was needed because of a Logitech Mouse that happened home one day. I'm basing it on the routines from MSDGL, but these are all Microsoft Mouse based. The important question: what is the byte decoding scheme for the default five bytes returned by the mouse. Enough on these. The trivia question of the week is - What interrupt call (or jump) will cause the Rainbow to hang with a memory error? Food for thought : Has anyone written a GIF Viewer for the Rainbow?
