Hello again, all,
I am making great progress with my modifications to Talbot Microsystems Color Forth, to make it useful in conjunction with DECB (or HDBDOS in my case). I now have a command (SSCR) for saving a block of 8 screens of Forth program code onto disk with your own file name, and also another command (LSCR) for loading a block of 8 screens of Forth program code from disk by filename. I also have a command (DIR) to take a look at the files available on disk, to check that your file got there OK, or if you need to look up the file name for loading.
I would also like to make a command called BASIC to allow one to revert back to DECB without having to resort to the reset or power switch.
Is there a specific location to jump to if one wants to execute a “cold start” into DECB? Is this spot different for a CoCo 1 or 2, versus a CoCo 3?
Thanks in advance!
