    65C816 used in the Super NES and Apple IIgs. Still sold. CPU speed up to 20 MHz.

    By analysis, IIRC, Borland C++ 3.x (same as for Wolf3D) was used to build Commander Keen (6 anyway).

  4. Re:Understanding computers on 6502 Machine Language for Beginners · · Score: 1

    Good emulators - such as Appler, Dapple ][, AppleWin and most Commode 64 emulators ;) - also allow you to load programs into memory from the local disk (instead of just from within the emulation). (All of these emulate 6502-class CPUs)

    Dapple ][ comes with a simple 65SC02 debugger which offers dump-to-file and local-file-load capability; this can be tied together with any assembler and disassembler, if you have a header-attachment tool (Dapple's BIN2PG2 works well). I personally use this - partially my handywork - to demo my C software. :)

    I developed RMF-COM originally on a Tandy 1000 HX with *no hard drive*. Pain city.

    Even now all I have available are a couple old 486s. I develop Dapple ][ and run it entirely on a 486/133. Takes a long time to MAKE, but works fine - 200% speed! Put that in MESS's pipe and smoke it.

    ;)

    Maybe if I can figure how the "fsck" to get a Thunderclock emulation and a Super Serial working in Dapple ][ (my own Apple ][ emulator, http://sourceforge.net/projects/dapple), it'll be the *perfect* development platform for Contiki ][, especially with the bin2pg2/bloader tool that lets you load a BIN file right off the hard drive.

    Questions though:

    * DOS 3.3, ProDOS 8 or no DOS?
    * Thunderclock or analyze ProDOS 8?
    * Can it work without a clock? Without serial?

    You're lucky. Over 90% of my e-mails are spam. Some days it's 100%.

    Hmm, have they ever thought that an e-mail address might be used by both a man and a woman? It happens.

    OK, I've bitten the bullet.

    Filters are inaccurate, vgrep is NP-annoying and legislation does jack.

    I think filtering *at the outgoing level* might be a solution...but still, not a very valuable one. And Internet Death Penalty to all spammers !!!
