That's annoying.

Is there any other way to access large partitions from TOS ?

Which is the correct EmuTOS for running on a Milan ?

I downloaded emutos-prg-0.9.12.zip and tried running emutos.prg and emutosuk.prg both cause and immediate lock-up.

I was hoping that EmuTOS might be able to access the large partitions that Milan TOS cannot access.

I had to handle the end of the file by testing for zero in the value returned. Luckily this is ascii so that works.

Does anyone have a list of the Pure Pascal runtime error codes ?

I use 1.13 for a Umax 1220S

I did contact the author only a few years ago on LinkedIn.

Nice attention to detail but no mouse and what is on the screen ?

My Milan got a new psu. The old AT one was getting noisy and so I bought an ATX one an adapter to fit the motherboard. The new psu has sata power plugs and so I had ordered 2 sata to Molex adapters at the same time but when the psu arrived it all ready has 2 molex plugs. I still needed 1 adapter bec...

Let's not overlook Alan's gentoo work.

Having only tried to build a few apps and libraries I found the biggest difficulty was dependencies.

I've never managed to run apps inside the pp editor it just crashes.

I am running my app from bash.

That doesn't work.

Once in the read loop it wouldn't make sense either.

Example:

It seems to be any attempt to check EOF causes the error.

I am just playing with an old Pure Pascal app I wrote years ago to do some processing of MyMail files. It needs strings longer than the Pascal 255 ones so I implemented a 1024 char string. It is read char by char but I have hit problems with testing EOF(file), it is causing a runtime 100 error. I tr...

Having not touched X Windows set-up for many years it still works. I can start xeyes, xclock, xterm, xskat (no idea how to play it).


However I can't work out how I used to start Pilot Link.

It would be nice to be able to use English definitions in .frm

That would probably mean adding language definitions for day (T or D), month ( M or M) and year (J or Y) and use those in TXmain instead of the literals.

I copied texel.frm from 2.0 and renamed it to texel_e.frm

Dates are shown correctly in existing and new s/s.

Official versions but I am not sure about the translation files.

I will try the 2.0 (German) .frm file in the 2.3 release and see how it behaves.

My guess is that there is an issue in either the date formats or the handling of the date formats. e.g. German [TT].[MM].[JJJJ] is good English [DD].[MM].[YYYY] is bad In txmain it does comparisons against literal values e.g. 'TT'. Should these be defined dependent in the language ? : if dummy='T' ...

Thanks! On Github is a version where nearly all text in english. Only the intern printer dialog is at the moment in german. MESSAGE_EMBED_DELETE = 'Really delete object?'; MESSAGE_PRINT_PRINTER = 'No printer is defined.'; MESSAGE_PRINT_DRIVER = 'There is no printer driver installed.'; FSELTITLE_PRI...

MESSAGE_PRINT_PRINTER = 'No printer is defined.';
MESSAGE_PRINT_DRIVER = 'There is no printer driver installed.';

e.g.
German [TT].[MM].[JJJJ] is good
English [DD].[MM].[YYYY] is bad

It look like it is easyer to send me the changes or attach it here.

Attached is the ENGLISH.INC file. I had to change the extension to allow me to attach it.

There seems to be a problem with date formats. When I open a s/s with a date column it shows the month like this .04.

I created a new s/s and it is the same.

Great work. I tried Mint USB on my Milan again a few days ago. It has not worked properly for a long time, only the earliest versions worked without mangling file names and/or for content. David G tried many times to work out why the Milan behaves differently. In the latest test even the usb loader ...

No problem.

I am getting used to github at the same time. I've been using bitbucket and now Azure but not had encoding or eol issues.

I had all ready forked the repo and I am working on my own fork. The problems arose when I started the Pull-Request (very odd name) and it complained about half of the lines (German char encoding) then when I got around that it thinks all the line endings have changed. Anyway I created the PR and it...

More success with IntelliJ (which I prefer because I use it every day at work).

The question is, what character set to use ?
