AFAIK it requires NASM to build, which means that it's probably x86-dependent, so I don't see it happening easily as most of the phones running Android use ARM CPUs. Apparently there are C substitutes for systems that don't support assembly. Can you develop in C for Android? Hmmm, apparently yes. I...

I think a good solution (as we tentatively discussed) would be to make an Ethernet or Wireless solution that allowed ANSI terminal programs to communicate with Telnet based BBS's. I love this idea :thumbs: I offer my help to anybody wants to have a go on this project. Not sure how I can help, but I...

I bought the Amiga one, and is perfect. All is the same. Even same examples.

I think I have found the answer myself


It shows the amount of free available memory, so with this I can figure out if my program can run on different configurations.

Is there a way to know how much RAM my program needs? I mean once compiled. I want to know how much RAM my programs are using, so I can tell if it can be run on a 512KB RAM, 1024KB RAM, etc.

Thanks a lot.

Indeed is for a TOS app. I haven't figured out yet how to use .RSC within my GFA BASIC programs to do a full GEM program.

Maybe I was not clear, no matter what you do, GFA cannot do what you are wanting with any of the built in INPUT commands. You literally have to write one from scratch, and activate the cursor as needed. I wrote one in about 10 minutes: Thank you very very much lp :thumbs: . I have learnt alot from ...

or try gemdos 8 Cnecin Thanks, but Cnecin() read a character only. Same can be achieved with a$=INP(2). But I want to read a string not a single character. There is Cconrs(), which reads a string, but echoes to the standard output stream. I guess I could define the standard output stream as to be s...

With that, the thickness can be reduced to a fraction of the actual size.

Otherwise nice work.

Indeed, here are some instructions if anybody is interested: BeagleBoard-based Laptop

Swapping the font would work, didn't think of that. :wink: I'm not sure how to do that. It's possible to turn the console cursor on/off and thus you can have a cursor that way. See xbios(21) documentation. I haven't used bios(), xbios(), gemdos() calls before. I tried Void Xbios(21,W:0) and nothing...

Awesome!

I'm doing an application which asks for a password to be entered before been able to use the application, and I would like to mask the password when is typed (either blanks or *). How to do it? Currently I'm using INPUT, and haven't seen anything on the manual that suggests how to do it. Use for th...

Not sure if macsociety is still interested in this topic, but I run into the same question myself and I found useful information here:

STart Vol. 3 No. 1
STart Vol. 3 No. 2
STart Vol. 3 No. 3

Hope it helps.

Didn't try on MiNT, sorry.

I do have Connect 95, but couldn't get connection at all. Maybe because my version is in German and I haven't configured it properly :P EDITED : I managed to connect. Same thing than with TAZ. I cannot enter my password. Default was in English with French and German RSC in separate folders. Any way...

OK. Dropping -w seems to work

Sorry I see you using as a terminal. Try to use Connect 95. I did that and it was great. I do have Connect 95, but couldn't get connection at all.

I'm trying to connect my STe to the PC through a serial null modem cable, to use it as a terminal. I have an issue that seems something like double CR when pressing Return, but I'm not 100% sure. On the PC I have Windows XP running Cygwin, and I do: /usr/sbin/agetty -w -h -L 19200 ttyS0 ansi On the ...

Interesting topic.

A question for the experts; which are in your opinion the pros and cons of using STOS vs GFA BASIC?
