I am part of a design group that is attempting to build a whole-body video
game for the KinderSkills program at West Virginia University.  The program
involves children ages 3-5.  We are writing two video games and building
a giant joystick on which the children will stand.  We are developing the
program on an Apple II+ and running it on a IIe.  We would like to use the
External connector on the IIe (rather than the internal game I/O connector)
but we don't have a pin-out for the nine-pin connector.  Can anyone send
me a diagram of this connector?

Also, the pushbuttons must be LSTTL compatable.  Should we use normally
closed pushbuttons wired to ground, or normally open pushbuttons wired
to +5 V with a pulldown resistor to ground?

In addition, we need some sort of graphics routines.  I vaguely remember
articles in Softalk about graphics routines.  Does anyone have or know of
any good animation routines for Apple hi-res?  We would need source code
for the routines.

Thanks in advance,

David Bruce
