Hi. I was talking with Warren Hrach and he told me that you were
intrested in the way I am using syscall on my bbs?? I'm not sure what it
is that you need to do, but fill me in! I would be glad to help out any
way I can. My program it 'built' from the ground up with MICROWARE
BASIC, and I can't find any getstt or setstt calls to check the CD
directly or force the DTR high or low. I am using peek and poke to get
this job done <G>. Its kinda like my own little syscall program. Just
let me know what you wanna do! Also I have a question for you...
How are you checking the CD and does your program handle the DTR also?
If so could you let me in on how you do it <G>?

Hello warren!
I just wanted to check and see if this echo was still alive or not. It's been
days since I've seen anything come through in this area. I know things are
quite busy in the MM/1 world but there has not been even a general mention of
anything here.
Later,

Tim,
With the privatization of the MM/1 developers list and cessation of
the cross posting it has been slow. Much is going on however with the
update beta release of windio53 and a new keydrv. Look for a general
release soon. I have a few new files, klogos.lzh (sample kwindows logos
by Joel Hegberg) and the update for UUCP 'uubb21p1.lzh' which fixes the
renews bugs and a few others.
BTW RiBBS_OSK should be in alpha-beta release by weeks end. John A
Donaldson is just about to hatch it. When ready for beta release he
will have available like RiBBS To Go, but on 2 1.44 floppys. I will
probably distribute to those volunteering to beta test. Haven't decided
how I will handle but maybe simplest if a person just sends 2 formatted
floppies in mailer with a few $ for S/H and I will copy and return.

Tim,
Are you on the MM/1 developers list ?. That is the one closed to
non developers/dealers/programmers.
RE RiBBS_OSK, John got sidetracked a bit when the rains came and
then the river fire. In fact his plant is 1/2 mile from river where a
barge was on fire and his Co. closed down and sent everybody home.
When he does get a working release I don't know if he wants the
bother of sending out disks, keeping track of who has what etc so I have
volunteered to help that way. Also I can adapt the RiBBS docs for the
OSK version and may do that.
Yes thanks to David Graham and a bunch of dedicated developers for
not giving up on the MM/1. David has pulled it together and is now
getting the 9meg upgrade boards out and also new systems.

Message # 7 *MM1 TECH Echo*
To : John A Donaldson
From : William Chapple
Subject : SysCall
Date : 94/10/22 12:49:12
Bill,
^^^^
What I am looking for is the correcceader for the registers used by
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
syscall. What I have is:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
TYPE=address D(8),A(8),PC:INTEGER
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
John,
Here is how I setup to call syscall from Microware BASIC:
TYPE registers=d0,d1,d2,d3,d4,d5,d6,d7,a0,a1,a2,a3,a4,a5,a6,cc:INTEGER
DIM regs:registers
DIM callcode:INTEGER
Notice there are eight data registers and seven address registers, and
following is the CC register. All are integers.
You can check the CC register after you call syscall. I sometimes check
it for any possible errors that may occur during the call...
As for the PC register, its not passed to/from basic and syscall in any
way that the basic program can check it?? Now if you changed PC to CC
in your example above, that would look more like it...
The above is from BASIC's point of view. If you are working on an
assembly language program and want to access the passed registers,
there is a listing of the syscall program in the Microware BASIC version
2.3 user's manual, end of appendix A on page A-19. It should help give
you an idea of how to check for them...
Its something I haven't tried yet on OS9/68k <G>.
Also it says the register pack must be at least 48 bytes in size, for
registers D0 thru A4,but this is incorrect... It would be 52 bytes for
registers d0 thru A4 plus the CC register, or, 8 data registers + 4
address
registers + the CC register Times 4 bytes for each register = 52 bytes.
The Microware BASIC release notes for version 2.3 tellss the above error
and says it should be 52 bytes.
I hope this helps clear things up a little <G>!
The way I check the CD and handle the DTR for now. In the MM/1 tech
manual
it describes how to check the cd and other things for the ports, but not
all info is given! For now all I can do is check the CD and handle DTR
on
port /T0. The MC68901 IC on the processor board provides control
functions
for devices on the board. The following table shows the functions
handled
by the MC68901 and the MC68901 GPDR (General Purpose Data Register) bits
that you can access to get at them:
________________________________________________________________
| 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 | 0 |
|-------|-------|-------|-------|-------|-------|-------|-------|
| KeyBd | Modem | Floppy| Motor | Master|Carrier| Drive | debug |
| IRQ | DTR | IRQ | ON | Slave |Detect | Ready | |
-----------------------------------------------------------------
o Keyboard IRQs can be turned off by masking bit 7, floppy drive IRQs
can
be turned off by setting bit 5 to zero, etc, etc...
o Modem control lines are handled in the same way: You can toggle the
DTR
on port /t0 by setting/resetting bit 6. You can also 'read' the GPDR
to get the status of the above. To check for the CD you would read
the MC68901 GPDR and mask to detect only bit 2. A ZERO means the CD
is high (Got CD). The address of the GPDR on the processor board is
$09ffc01.
This method can be used to check ports /T0 and /T2, but the /T3 and
/T4 ports use the MC68681 DUART, and I don't know the address of the
6-bit input and 8-bit output control ports. I just got a /t3 port and
will be checking it out soon.
I haven't tried port /T2 because its my mouse port, but it should work
by
checking address $0e00381, but bit 0 = CD, bit 1 = DTR, the other bits
control sound mode, SCSI, etc..
/T1 doesn't support CD and DTR.
I have in mind to make a cd watchdog type program that uses the SS_DCoff
and SS_DCon I$Setstt calls, but haven't decided exacly how I want to
handle
it yet. Seems a lot like the ML program you mentioned...
Well, I guess I've talked (typed) enough tech-talk for now <G>. I hope
at least some of this will help you out somewhere!
Now for a quick question - I am trying my hand at C, and it would help
a lot if I had a book on K&R C. Where can I find such a book?

the echo has been turned on, I haven't seen anything come in, so I thought I'd
post a message to see if I can get it kicked in the pants to get it going.

Yep Houston was a mess. Not that I wish it on anyone, but I'm gald it didn't
get that bad here. I'd have to say that RiBBS_OSK would have to be a real LOW

Agreed, David seems to have done a great job sparking the forward development
of the MM/1. It's especially nice to see such cooperative efforts among the
"super OSK programmers" in the advancement of K-windows.

Brian,
Are you now solidly located ? I have had go arounds with Brenda
about FD 2.20. She claims there is no new release fixing the timeout
bug. You mentioned it was available a while back, what gives ??
I just tried freq'ng the new osk files from Tim Jones's system and
it hung up before mine could send the xxxxxx.req. Dont know if he
supports freq for OCN OSK files or not. Anyway keep on keying !
BTW The RiBBS_OSK is getting closer and closer.

We need to make some sort of correction to your distribution notice. I
do not have the OSK files on the Coco Exchange. Since Warren Hrach is
maitaining a library of OSK files on his BBS, and we are in the same
area of the country (San Diego), and I have a limited amount of storage
space (the Coco Exchange is and will stay on a Coco), Warren and I
agreed to this split.

If anyone has current information or has used this configuration I would

Thanks for setting up the new files I was looking for. Hope you get

Please check on any sources you may have for RiBBS , namely rlist,
cparslst, bundle and unbundle and menushrink and let me know if
available for John A Donaldson to use with the RiBBS_OSK port. We do
have the orginal basic09 sources for bundle and mailimport.

Hello Serge,

Sure I can set you up to receive files. These are not on the backbone and
require a poll of once a week or so. We send out files for OS-9 / OSK / RiBBS
and other OCN stuff. Let me know what you are interested in. Check the tag
line for my fido address and phone number.

Warren, do you want me to set you up to receive files automaticly again? BTW,
I've fixed my freq problem. I saw where you reqested a file a while back but
it didn't look like it went out to you.

Tim,
I am not sure if it is/was a RiBBS problem. Brian Steward and I
ran some freq checks with his FD 2.30 and could not resolve it. I did
get freq to work on second try to his system and consequent trial with
differant xmblins installed. So it seems to be intermittant and for now
I will just rely on freq when I see files for OSK. I hesitate setting
up the regular automatic on the CoCo cause after I moved my fidoin and
fidoout dirs to my drive /d1 the rtick thingy errors out. Probably cause
it uses mv and that wont work from one drive to another.
Also since I am about to start beta testing RiBBS_OSK I don't want
to mess with the coco system anymore.
Let me know if you still want to beta test RiBBS_OSK.

Newton, I logged onto the ACS BBS this am, and ran into a lot of
problems. I logged on initially at 14.4 and then at 9600. Both times
the screen would freeze on me. I need to download some files - and
can't until I solve this problem.
Any ideas??

I changed your logon from ANSI to regular text... try again and let me know.
Both 14.4 and 9600 should be fine. If you still have problems, send a list of
the files you need and I will send them to wherever you want!

Warren, I did have a problem with my system here that was causing file
requests to go unanswered. It should be fixed now so it you RiBBS will
cooperate with you you should be able to freq files from me. As to RiBBS_OSK,
yes I would like to beta it. In fact I'm currently shopping for a 28.8 modem
for the BBS so I can put the ZyXel on the MM/1.

I expect to receive the first MM/1 I/O board from MicroLith Digital
Workshop within 2 days. So, we should now be able to ship new MM/1
systems within 20 days of the order from now on!
