[Coco] TANO Dragon 64 Prototype...

[Al Hartman]

Sorry, the CAS2WAV is not a Windows program, it opens a command window and 
immediately exits. I don't know how to ude it, and the readme is of little 
help to me.

I really expect a Windows program to have a GUI and to guide me a little 
more.

I have no idea how to set Xroar up.

Well not so much specifically Dragon 32, but all Dragon 32s and the very
early 64s had the keyboard that sat deep in the case, secured by a couple
of plastic widgets.  The later version had a metal back and was mounted
on posts.  You can tell from outside as the typeface differs slightly.

Here's pics of my Tano for comparison:

I see your prototype also hasn't had the RF shielding paint job.

Ah that's only in CAS form so you'll need something to spit out a WAV
(which won't have any silence, just leader in between the various
programs).

cas2wav here: http://www.6809.org.uk/dragon/#castools

Or zephyr from the archive built a version for Windows here:

(Alternatively load each into XRoar or similar and CSAVE them out again
to a WAV file - they're all BASIC programs...)

I'll try and locate the little introduction sheet that came with it,
though I don't think there was anything on it that would actually help
you use the programs!
