A Letter from the Macintosh Developers Group 15 March 1985 DearReader: After many months of work the Macintosh Division’s User Education Group (responsible for all the Macintosh documentation) has completed the manuscript for Jnside Macintosh. We’ve finalized production arrangements with a major publisher and you can expect to see the final edition at better bookstores everywhere by late summer ’85. However, we can’t wait that long and don’t expect you to either. We’ ve therefore produced this special Promotional Edition to handle the demand for Inside Macintosh until the final edition becomes available. The contents of this edition are still preliminary and subject to change; the final edition will include many updates and corrections. The production quality of the final edition will be significantly improved from this inexpensive edition. Now, here are answers to some questions we anticipate: Q.I purchased the three-ring binder version of Inside Macintosh from your mail-house for $100 and also bought the Software Supplement for $100. Is this Promotional Edition the final copy I’m supposed to receive for purchasing the Software Supplement? A.No. As promised, Supplement owners will receive a copy of the final version when it’s available. Q. How can I get Macintosh developer utilities, example programs, example source code, the libraries I need to do Lisa Pascal/Macintosh cross-development work, and additional copies of this manual? A.The Software Supplement consists of: 1) useful Macintosh utilities, example programs, and example source code, 2) the interface files, equate files, and trap definitions in both Macintosh and Lisa readable format, 3) all of the libraries required for Lisa Pascal/Macintosh cross-development, 4) a new Lisa Pascal Compiler, which supports SANE numerics, and 5) a copy of the final published edition of Inside Macintosh (this will be sent to you when available). The price for the Software Supplement is $100. As of April ’85 the Software Supplement has been frozen to correspond to /nside Macintosh and automatic updates will no longer be included in the Software Supplement price. We will, however, inform Supplement owners of other products and utilities as they become available. You may also order additional copies of this special Promotional Edition of Inside Macintosh for $25 per copy. You can order the Software Supplement and/or copies of this Promotional Edition of Inside Macintosh by writing to (California residents please add 6.5% sales tax) : Apple Computer, Inc. 467 Saratoga Avenue Suite 621 San Jose, CA 95129 (408) 988-6009 Q. Is there a good way to keep up-to-date with new utilities and technical notes and at the same time stay in touch with other developers? A. We’ve found that electronic distribution is a very cost-effective, timely way to keep the developer world up-to-date. At least two major on-line services, Delphi and Compuserve, host the MicroNetworked Apple Users’ Group (MAUG)--an electronic s…

Rich Page 6/29/85 Yideo/Sound Timing Gate Array: VIG The VTG implements the horizontal and power supply sync signals, the sound clock, the system timer and the interfaces for the front desk bus modem and the clock chip. The horizontal and power supply sync signals are derived from the video dot rate clock divided by 32 (ie. 2.1888 MHz) using a six bit counter and write registers 10 thru 13 which provide control of the horizontal period, horizontal blank stop, horizontal sync start and horizontal sync stop. The default at reset provides a horizontal rate of 1!l.75KHz and a power supply sync at twice the horizo~tal period at 99.5KHz. The refresh/sound counter is fixed at four times the sound rate using a divide of 41.5 from the 3.6864 Mhz clock which yields a clock of 88.8 KHz. The system timer is a, 16 bit counter which counts at a rate of one fourth of the 3.6864 Mhz clock (ie. approximately once every microsecond). The timer counts upwards to zero. When the timer rolls over to zero, a time out interrupt is generated (ie. s,ets ~ROJ and the system timer is loaded from the the system timer latch (write registers 6 and 7). The front desk bus (FOB) interface is a five line interface which is controlled by write register 4. The five signals are STO, ST1, FS7 (data), FC (clock) and FINT. The, FOB shift register is located at register 2. --===-;z The real time clock (RTC) interface is a four line interface which is controlled by write register 5. The four signals are CINT (1 sec interrupt), RC (clock), CE (clock enable) and RS7 (data). The VTG is located at $FFFOOP0~ with a register spacing of $10. There are six read registers and ten write registers implemented as follows: Bead Register 0: Status $FFFOOOO 0 Bit 0 SRO Status Reg 0, set by the RTC one second interrupt. Bit 1 SR1 ( Status Reg 1, set by the System Timer timeout. Bit 2 FINT . FOB Interrupt input. Bit 3 RSIN RTC serial data input. Bit 4 RA3 VTG Register Address bit 3 ..

The globals documented here are described for your reference, but you will probably not use many of them directly. MacApp methods use the globals, while the application code very rarely, if ever. Constants This section documents the constants defmed as part of the MacApp package. Although the values of the constants are given here for your information, those values are subject to change.

é Macintosh? Allegro Common LISP Foreign Function Interface Overview The Foreign Function Interface (FFI) lets Allegro CL call functions written in C, Pascal, Assembler, and other languages (such functions are called foreign functions). Foreign functions can, in turn, make calls back to Lisp. To take advantage of the high-level functions described below, the foreign function code must be compiled into Macintosh Programer’s Workshop (MPW™) object file format. Any compiler which produces object files of the MPW format may be used. Machine code produced by other compilers or assemblers can only be accessed using the low-level function ff-call. The Foreign Function Interface provides two interface syntaxes. The primary syntax is designed specifically for use with Allegro CL on the Macintosh; this is the syntax described by the major portion of this document. The secondary syntax (Franz syntax) was implemented for compatibility with versions of Allegro CL running on other computers; this syntax is described in Franz Inc’s Allegro CL User Guide, with supplemental notes provided at the end of this document. Using foreign functions from Allegro CL involves the following steps: * Write and compile the foreign functions using a compiler which produces MPW object Files. ¢ Run Allegro CL and load the Foreign Function Interface fas! files. ¢ Load the MPW object files with the function f£-1load. * Define an interface for each foreign function you wish to call. (This is done with defffun.) Call the foreign functions from Lisp using Lisp syntax. A call from Lisp to a foreign function looks exactly like a call to another Lisp function. The Lisp function which makes the call (and, for that matter, the programmer) doesn’t even need to Allegro Foreign Function Interface know that the function called was written in a different language. Installation The files required to use the foreign function interface are found in the folder "Foreign Function Folder." You may wish to move the files "££.fasi" and "defforeign.fas1" into a directory included in your *module-search-path*. To use the foreign function interface, run Allegro CL and load the file "££.fasl". If you wish to use Franz syntax, you must also load the file "defforeign.fasl". Foreign Function Interface Operations £f£-load files &key :entry-names :libraries [Function] :library-entry-names :ffenv-name :replace loads the MPW object files specified by files, and returns a foreign function environment. The foreign function environment returned consists of code segments, a jump table, a static data area, and a collection of active entry point names. Dead code removal is performed so that only code and data reachable from the active entry points will be included in the environment. files should be a filename, pathname or a list of filenames and pathnames of MPW object files. :entry-names a list of strings naming all the entry points in files which should be active. If :ent ry-names is not specif…

é Macintosh® Allegro Common LISP Version 1.2 Release Notes Overview This is the first Apple release of Macintosh Allegro Common Lisp Version 1.2 (software version 1.2.2). This product was previously sold in three separate modules by Coral Software; Allegro CL Version 1.2, Foreign Function Interface, and Stand-Alone Application Generator. Any references to Coral Software are inadvertent and should be disregarded. The sections in this document follow the same order as the chapter of the Allegro CL User’s Guide. Getting Started Installation This section supersedes the section “Installing Allegro CL” on page ii of the main manual. The following procedure installs Allegro CL as well as the Foreign Function Interface and the Stand-Alone Application Generator. Allegro CL ships on two floppy disks. Neither disk includes a system file. To use Allegro CL, you will need a hard disk with a system file installed. Simply copy the files from both Allegro CL disks to a single folder on your hard disk. If you have older versions of Allegro CL on your disk, you may wish to remove (or archive) them. This will guarantee that when you double-click a document, it will open with the right version of Allegro CL. The Help File Allegro CL now includes documentation strings and argument list information for many built in functions (though not all of them). These are accessible through the Fred commands control-x control-d (documentation) and control-x control-a (argument list). The documentation strings are stored in a separate file, Allegro Help. If this file is not in the cel; logical directory, Allegro will ask you to help locate it the first time you attempt to use documentation strings or argument lists. Allegro CL 1.2 Release Notes The disassembler Because of size constraints, the disassemble feature has been moved from the main Allegro CL application into a fasl file. This file is in the library folder. It will be loaded automatically (using require) when disassemble is called. The only constraint is that it be kept ina folder directly accessible to Allegro CL. *abort-character* The variable *abort-character* has been removed from Allegro CL. This function is now only performed by command-period. The variable was removed so that control-g could be used by ed-abort-listener- input. This command, when typed in the Listener, aborts the current input and prints a new Listener prompt. The old input is not deleted, so that you can go back to it later. Allegro CL Menus There have been several changes in the arrangement of the menubar. In the Edit, the Change Font and Insert Killed String... menu-items have been removed. These are now available as example files. The Documents... menu-item has been removed (because the ccl-doc folder has also been removed). In the Eval menu, menu items have been added for step and trace. The Step... menu-item lets the user input a string, which is read and then stepped. The Trace... menu-item brings up a dialog box gi…
