To: Info-Atari8@SCORE.STANFORD.EDU I've seen a bunch of references to CC8 being posted recently, but haven't seen it show up anywhere. I've looked in the archives on Score, on RADC-SOFTVAX, and asked some LISTSERVs about it, to no avail. Am I missing something obvious? ------------------------------ Date: 10 Aug 87 14:31:11 GMT From: dayton!joe@RUTGERS.EDU (Joseph P. Larson) Subject: Need short help on reading strings -- Atari 6000X? To: info-atari8@score.stanford.edu Please excuse my ignorance (and all that). A friend of mine recently purchased an Atari-6000-X-something-or-other. He's trying to get it to do stuff in Basic (of course). Now, he can get it to read integers from the keyboard ("input i"), but he says he can't get it to read strings at all ("input a$" does NOT work). I personally haven't touched a line of basic in about 3 years or so (and that was under extreme protest) and I don't think I've even SEEN an Atari (well, I probably have, but....), so I don't know the idiosyncracies of his machine. So -- who out there can send me mail with an example of how to read a string on this machine? Please -- if you program on this machine and know how to read a string, email me an example and I'll send it down to him. Don't bother to followup here -- I don't subscribe to this newsgroup. -- UUCP: rutgers!dayton!joe Dayton Hudson Department Store Company ATT : (612) 375-3537 Joe Larson/MIS 1060 (standard disclaimer...) 700 on the Mall Mpls, Mn. 55408 ------------------------------ Date: 11 Aug 87 02:03:42 GMT From: sunybcs!bingvaxu!marge.math.binghamton.edu!sullivan@ames.arpa (fred sullivan) Subject: Re: More Info on CC8 To: info-atari8@score.stanford.edu In article <14209@watmath.waterloo.edu> swklassen@watmath.waterloo.edu (Steve Klassen) writes: >In article <3682@cbterra.ATT.COM> smk@cbosgd.UUCP (Steve Kennedy) writes: >> >> o The compiler understands "left curly", "right curly", and >> "tilde" (meaning whatever graphic or control character they >> happen to map to in ATASCII). >> >Does anyone happen to know what these characters would be on the Atari? >I would like to know so that I can redefine them on my text editor. character ascii code atari keystroke atari graphics character ------------ ---------- --------------- ------------------------ left curly { 123 ctrl-; club? right curly } 125 esc ctrl-< arrow pointing north-west? tilde ~ 126 esc backspace triangle pointing left?

The only help I can add here is that the right bracket is the clear screen character (esc-clear), and the left curly is the spade symbol (CTRL- [colon]). I don't know what the tildes are. --Tim tpcharron@watmath.waterloo.edu ------------------------------ Date: 11 Aug 87 03:39:23 GMT From: austin!hpai@cs.utah.edu (HP AI User) Subject: Re: Info-Atari8 Digest V87 #57 To: info-atari8@score.stanford.edu Does anyone have a UUDECODE program that works properly so that I can decode the Kermit-65?

I believe Atari still sells them. Your best bet would be to write to Atari Customer Service. -- -Marc L.
