41-CX's "ED" gets a facelift

[Ángel Martin]

Hi J-F,

Glad to know it works on EMU41 ;-)

Yes, I have other additions made to the OS and specifically to that ROM5B that use much of the initially available space; so what appears to be "in the middle of nowhere" it really isn't. The other additions are not patches per se, but more functions added (RNG, RETPFL, RNFL, CLEM, FLHD, etc.) - taking advantage of the fact that there were available FAT entries in the Time module.

I called the ROM trail "TM-XX", but the checksums are different in my case because of the above reason.

I have corrected the link to your article in mine, it works fine for me.

BTW, do you know of a way to access the "capital Gamma" character on a half-nut? On the fullnut that is code 0x60, but on a half-nut that one was re-purposed to the upper "t".

In the patch for ED I use char 0x97 (151d), which produces "G:" - with the colon as part of the character itself, even if you place it in ALPHA it takes only one byte.

Cheers,
ÁM
