David,
|
|
Thanks for the info. I see that some testing on different systems
|
|
will definitely need to be done. However, I would think that the problem
|
|
should be of no consequence to me, since the first thing I do is take a
|
|
base sample of the joystick values so that any character movement will
|
|
occur relative to the original values coming in from the port. As long
|
|
as the port is active and works the program should compensate for any
|
|
difference in returned values.
|
|
We shall soon see.
|
|
...Eric...

YIKES!! I DID mail it during December - and at the beginning of the

month. That means it was competing with my monthly personal newsletter
|
|
and Christmas planning. Oh dear! Wait! I still have an affinity for
|
|
using my stamp affixer gadget, so forgetting stamps won't be very
|
|
likely. Okay, now I feel sure I remembered the stamp! :)
|
|
On the other hand, if it doesn't arrive by 12/20/93, I'd like to know so
|
|
I can alert the dead letter office! (*shudder*) Malcolm

It is in more than just that trade mag. The Ad Man at Microware has an
|
|
interesting sense of humor ("great embedd").
|
|
|
|
It touts the 68040 VME board. I assume it operates with "lesser"
|
|
processors in the family. Looks like the 68K family is going embedded
|
|
while the PowerPC 6xx family is going to get all of the glory at both
|
|
IBM and Apple. I requested the info on the PowerPC from Moto. It <is>
|
|
interesting but sad for the 68K.

*** Attention all RiBBS and related programmers ***
|
|
|
|
Charles West, Wes Gale, Norman Rheaume, Bill Wittman
|
|
and any others that have contributed.
|
|
|
|
The OSK/BINK/KBBS group is looking for compatable program
|
|
sources that can be ported to the OS9-68K system.
|
|
|
|
External programs such as bundle, unbundle, cparslst,
|
|
nodeprocess, autofrl, rtick, ltick, looknode, getmsgs etc.
|
|
are needed along with programs for creating menus, creating
|
|
a userlog and editing same. Also needed is all normal BBS
|
|
msg handling, archiving, tossing etc programs that I have
|
|
missed. Note that these program names are RiBBS names and
|
|
their counterpart in other BBS systems can also be considered.
|
|
|
|
Program sources in C are preferable but basic09 and assem.
|
|
may be used as long as they are documented sufficiently to
|
|
assist the programmer doing the port.
|
|
|
|
At present there is a port of Binkley being implemented
|
|
and it is intended to use Binkley as the mailer portion.
|
|
|
|
All authors that contribute will be noted in the docs for
|
|
the new OSK BBS. It is to be a public domain release and
|
|
will be designed to run on any OS9-68K platform.
|
|
|
|
Please contact me, Warren Hrach at the Ocean Beach BBS
|
|
(619) 224-4878 Fido net/node 202/343, 12, 24, 9600 baud v.32b.
|
|
or by mail, 4369 Newport Ave. San Diego, CA 92107.
|
|
Contributions can be on 3.5" 720K OS9 format disks or 1.4 meg
|
|
OS9-68K format. 5.25" OS9 360K disk format also acceptable.
|
|
|
|
This msg. crossposted on OS9, RIBBS and MM1_TECH Fido echos.
|
|
If someone will post on Delphi and/or Internet it will be
|
|
appreciated.
