cool, I went to my dad's house and got his "the applesoft tutorial", which has been sitting in the same drawer since his apple //e was brand new
except for a tiny wrinkle on the d…

Oh yes, I am ready to get started. I have been studying the "Programming the 6502" book which I obtained just for this project.
I now know the equivalent of Applesoft's PEEK, POKE…

When will you be posting the Apple II stuff on there that you have?

Hopefully in July or August. I need to update the Vault page, though. I've done more work…

I don't post. I just read the news on my site. See this topic: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=9839

Yeah I saw that thread. It looked like a simple way to check up…

What do you go by on there, since I haven't seen Dog Cow as a name on any messages.

Thanks for the link, I'll check it out. I've seen you quite a few times on csa2 as well. UNIX on the Apple II is something that people have been talking about for over 20 years…

I don't think that it does. I just read the manual last evening, and it looks like it's a bunch of BASIC scripts all tied together. It does have a task scheduler, though.

Well, the browser is a damned handy thing... with serious limitations. It's not really much good for modern web content, but it is a great way to download files to your Apple II. Y…

I don't think not programming for Contiki disqualifies you from commenting on its use. Anything about the (user perspective!) differences between 1.x and 2.x, using the UI or …
68kMLADevelopmentby ChristTrekkerWed, 3 Jun 2009 - 19:50
Unfortunately I don't have much to contribute... I haven't done any programming for Contiki. As far as using it goes, I'm running the 2.x version on the web server and I use 1.3 fo…
68kMLADevelopmentby ludditeWed, 3 Jun 2009 - 19:10
Maybe luddite could write a bit about his Contiki experiences for us, and explain the differences between the 1.x and 2.x branches. I recently read something about 2.x being focus…

I played with it a bit last year... I was hoping to get a proline bbs online, but the message board part is pretty archaic and I wasn't up to the task of writing a new one. Neat to…

I took a look at ProLine last night, since it apparently has a lot of Unix-like architecture.

Except I don't believe it does multitasking, does it?

I think the closest you'll come to something that works out of the box w/o a lot of work is Contiki. I don't have any experience with it, but some people around here do.
68kMLADevelopmentby ChristTrekkerTue, 2 Jun 2009 - 14:56
Thanks for the links. I have no idea if I'll be able to pull it off or not. Looking around, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of success stories.
With more searching, I found t…

What about the MMU in the //e?

You might want to take a look at a couple of projects that have come before. But first, you probably want to abandon all hope…

How much memory does the MMU page in and out at a time? Both granularity, and within the memory map of the 6502?
