The Multi-Vue enhanced windowing system provides tools, which allow you to create and manipulate windows. This Yahtzee programming example demonstrates how to use the Multi-Vue system and how to do it using the c compiler.

 
  • Robert Gault's RGBDOS is fantastic, a must have if you run Jeff Vavasour's Coco3 emulator or MESS.  You can download it from Robert Gault's web-site.
    • Here are the steps I took to configure RGBDOS with Jeff Vavasour's Coco3 emulator with OS-9 virtual hard drive formatted with Alan DeKok's h0.dd and ddh0.dd descriptors.
      • I put the TOOLS.DSK - in drive zero
      • I put my OS-9 Level 2 BOOT.DSK - in drive one
      • I followed the directions from the documentation and ran CREATE.BAS
      • I ran LINK.BAS to link my OS-9 Level 2 BOOT.DSK and make it compatible.
      • I put my OS-9 Level 2 BOOT.DSK - drive zero
      • I finally edited AUTOEXEC.BAS to suit my needs and I was finished.


The 6309 Micro Processor Project
The 6309 Micro Processor Project is underway...

I have begun to explore the possibilities of updating Jeff Vavasour's Coco3 emulator to run a 6309 microprocessor chip.  Already I have progressed a fair amount, when you consider the work needed to undertake such a project.  First I have to become completely familiar with the source code I wish to alter.  Once I have understood the source code, I will begin to enhance the code while staying inside the parameters of the original source code.  I will try to keep the same coding style, close as I can to the original style of source code.
