|
Original name: "xcall" (Basic program--load and list)
|
Liz Deal wrote this program to demonstrate how to create a pseudo-jump table
|
in a machine language routine. Details are given in WXCALL.DOC, above. This
|
file is actually the source code for an assembly language program, and it
|
contains a commented disassembly of the machine code.

HIKER.BIN "b256hi.ker" (program-type file)
|
These four files are memory dumps of the standard B128 and B256 Basic ROMS
|
and Kernal ROMS. Compare them with your own machine's ROMS to see if you
|
have the main production model, or an early version released before all the
|
bugs were worked out.
|
CompuServe name: QPLOT.BIN
|
Original name: "qplot.b128" (Basic program)

a bug in it. This name needed to run SAMPLE.BIN above.
|
CompuServe name: SAMOBJ.BIN
|
Rename to: "sample obj" (machine language program)
|
This code is not run, it is just included for demo purposes. SAMPLE.BIN,
