I seem to remember such a beast... At any rate, you don't need ALL the files on one disk to operate the system, use the format program provided to format yourself a few blank disks, and then use the cp command to copy over the files-> the boot disk should have the 'system' file and the autoexec on it, the edit disk can have the editor, and file viewing commands (list and more I believe, if you don't have more I can send you the source and you can type it in.. very short program) and the compiler disk should have all the other files ->ccn,cc hyperc,lib,etc.. create your source with the editor, save on the editor disk or on yet another disk (workdisk), stick the compiler disk in the other drive and compile it thus (workdisk in drive1 compiler in drive2) b:cc a:testprogram The cc script will run, first through the preprocessor to get all the #includes then the compiler itself, and then the assember and linker... (this generates pcode) If you substitute ccn for cc then the compiler uses a macro processor and a 65**C**02 assembler to assemble the code and you end up with 100% assembly code... Who here would like to try to hack at the OS to make it more or less ProDOS compatible?? If you would like to try, I'll email you a copy of the source directly in almost any format you like before I send it off to Paul Nakada for posting on binaries.apple2-> send email to the address below!!
