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 . 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 ?

Is the CC register passed after the PC register?? What I am looking for is the full format of registers. As for CD and DTR, These are handled via a ML routine. Right after I open the port I initialize the CD handler. The ML program uses the CDON/CDOFF calls. I am doing a 1 to 1 port of RIBBS. I have taken the 6809 ML routines, translated them to 68000 code, and a friend of mine then took them and optimised them to work with 68K Basic. I am just about to have a minimum system running. That is a user will be able to call in, login, look around, leave msgs, & read msgs. NO file transfer, NO FIDO mail routines will work and so forth. Once this mode is running, then I plan to add the FIDO Mail routines, so that mail can be passed from system to system. Finially, when I feel it is usable as a BBS (thru not perfect), I am going to start rewriting the whole thing into C. That port may take a long time if I don't use KWindows. If I use KWIndows, it will shorten the time considerly. I would be interested on how you are accessing CD and DTR, and ect.

Just wanted to let you know that I have the new version here and I will be sending it out through the OCN to replace the previous one.

I added a short program called "play". It reads the first four bytes of a file and tries to identify it as a sound file. If successful, it forks one of the four programs (auplay, iffplay, vocplay or wavplay) to play it. I replaced the file mm1_play.lzh in the incoming directory on chestnut with the new version. The size of the old compressed file was 8093 bytes, the size of the new one is 8783 bytes. Nothing else is changed (except for a few words on the documentation sheet).

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.

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. --- RiBBS v2.10 * Origin: Ocean Beach BBS 619-224-4878 MM1 TECH moderator (1:202/745) =*= FIDO ECHO MESSAGES MENU =*= <1> Scan \ <2> Read > OS9 Echo mail <3> Leave / <4> Scan \ <5> Read > CoCo Echo mail <6> Leave / <7> Scan \ <8> Read > CoCo_Club Echo mail <9> Leave / Scan \ Read > MM1_TECH Echo Mail Leave / o back to Main Menu
