[Coco] Tandy OS-9 Level II startup script.

[Stephen H. Fischer]

Hi,

For your reference, here is the stock Tandy OS-9 Level II startup script.
(Maybe)

Please understand this may not be correct, I used Windows Wordpad to extract
it.

If someone has the actual startup script, please post it.

.......................................................................................


Note the "wcreate -z" command and the four lines following, the last one is
blank saying no more windows are to be created.

So all three windows are created at once in one process to appear on the
same screen.

NOTE! On page 6-97 for WCREATE there are 4 ERRORS noted in my OS-9 Manual.

   1 = 40 Col Text
   2 = 80 Col Text
* 5 = 640x192 two color screen
* 6 = 320x192 four color screen
* 7 = 640x192 four color screen
* 8 = 320x192 sixteen color screen

I suggest trying this on the system you are using.
