Why are we not using his last version of the tool ? The version in the OSDK is the one that was released from Fabrice's old site, since I don't use it I never updated it. That's as simple as that. Now, there are two possibilities: - I stop using the version I have on SVN and get the version from So...

Should I move your order back to the bottom of the page so you get recontacted?
I'm trying to keep the list clear for everybody to know where they are

Therefore we need to exchange some data from program to program. It contains basically the position and orientation in the labyrinth (3 bytes) and the characters data (about 400 bytes). Ok, that does not sound bad :) Currently Basic programs do the following: - position and orientation are kept at ...

Then I really recommend that you use OSDK_SHOWMAP.BAT, it will generate a html page with the list of all the addresses, zero page, overlay memory, and what is aligned or not.

Heu... when I say cheat, I mean cheat: Drop the DSK file in an hex editor, search the string, and modify it

In generally for the colors I cheat by editing directly in the sectors.

As for FloppyBuilder, it's not Sedoric compatible, it's for pure sector/track accesses so it does not even bother creating a directory table.

Well, depend of what you mean by 'highest address'. What you will find with your method is the position of the last byte of the executable, which basically is the end of the TEXT/DATA sections, if the program uses the BSS to declare arrays, it may not work. I guess knowing what you want to do would ...

Nice

I did not notice at all that Chema was first and Dbug last in the list

We already have plenty of other toys to learn C programming on. I just wanted something that would work on the Oric. And, imho, doesn't the Cumulus represent a near-infinite amount of expansion when it comes to compiling? We don't have to build a single-pass compiler - multiple passes, given the RA...

I'd love to have a decent C compiler on the Oric - maybe something that can really exploit the new-found power of Cumulus, perhaps, to give the Oric at least a decent way of building optimized apps in a language other than Basic, without requiring the investment into an archaic assembly language. T...

If somebody feels like reviewing the code generation quality (size, performance) compared to the current C compiler of the OSDK, you are welcome

Thanks for the feedback.
Interesting point on this Tap2Dsk problem: Does it happen only with this game or have you had the same issue with anything converted with Tap2Dsk?

I would help if I had any idea of how this whole thing work
Back in the days already I did not like STORE/RECALL on tapes!

Do you really need BASIC type arrays, can't you just use memory buffers and use PEEK/DEEK/POKE/DOKE to access data?

There seems to be some omissions in the preorder list; I see people stating that they have received their unit, but they are not in the preorder list? How far down on the preorder list are we now? It's because I move them to the 'received' list. Now, 65c02 has received his, but I had no information...
