    My Xenix Adventure

    I was more interested in programs than trying to get TCP/IP or Ethernet working. I think I do remember seeing some disk images for TCP/IP on the WEB but never downloaded them or played with them. I'll leave that to some of the other people here to try to get working. 73 Bill WD9EQD Smithville, NJ

    People's Pascal

    Gee- It's been a few months. But I have finally posted a zip file and pdf of the Tiny Pascal to internet Archive: https://archive.org/details/tiny-pas I'd appreciate someone taking a look at it and telling me what you think. It's now possible on a Ms-Dos machine to create/edit a Tiny Pascal...

    My Xenix Adventure

    Xenix Adventure Continues - Part 5 I decided that any good system needed some games to play with. After looking at various games discs, I went with trek, tetris, reversi and life. One thing I have noticed is that system date is not correct. The time is accurate. I located the FY2K fix in the...

    My Xenix Adventure

    Some Background Years ago, I had run Xenix 286 on computers at home and at work. These systems could all communicate with each other by modems over the phone system. The home system was also connected to several ham radios and could connect using TCP/IP by radio to other ham radio systems...

    People's Pascal

    Update on People’s Pascal I. I haven’t forgotten about it. I received an email from member Laurie. He had downloaded my original 2014 zip file and still had it. So he sent my Zip file of People’s Pascal I back to me. Thank you Laurie. I have furthered my original work. The basic compiler...

    People's Pascal

    I was able to find my old work where I had typed in the Basic Compiler from the BYTE Magazine articles. I got it working with Basica or GWBasic in the MSDos computer. I had converted the North Star Basic FN functions to straight basic code. When the program is run, it asks for the name of a...

    People's Pascal

    People's Pascal was sold by Computing Information Exchange. There were two versions: People's Pascal I was implemented for the TRS-80 by John Alexander of Pipe Dream Software, Berwick, Australia. It was a fairly straight forward implementation of the three part Byte Magazine. It consisted of...

    People's Pascal

    Thanks for the zip. But I'm looking for the original People's Pascal that only came on cassette. There were two versions: People Pascal I - Which was written in basic and almost exactly matched the Byte Tiny Pascal. People Pascal II - Which was the typical Tiny Pascal that is most common. I...

    People's Pascal

    Many years ago, I played around with People's Pascal which was a Tiny Pascal based on the Byte articles. Unfortunately, I have lost the drive that had the files on them. This came on a cassette tape that had People's Pascal I and People's Pascal II on it. I'm hoping that someone here still...

    TRS-80 Pocket Computer PC-1 (Sharp PC-1211)/PC-3 (PC-1250/1251) Software Library (& request for more software) - Full PDF scans and digital WAVs

    The programs, with some modifications, can also be run on the Sharp PC-1262. 1350 & 1360. I've converted some of the games to run on these computers. You have to look for the following in the source code: Implied Multiplication. These can be tricky to find. Instances of exponents such as...

    Running Minix, a UNIX-like Operating System on the HP 200LX DOS Palmtop

    Many years ago, Mack Baggette modified the minix kernel so that it will work with the LX's eccentricities. I had copies of the files and did test that they ran on my HP-200LX. He made several versions for different size cards, from 8 meg to 40 meg. I no longer have the files, but I did some...

    Mid Atlantic Free for local pickup: Sun SPARCstation 2

    Alex, Sounds good. Not sure how you come up to the museum. If you come up the NJ Parkway from south Jersey, then we can easily meet at one of the rest stops. Otherwise, I could bring it up to the Museum. It's only about and hour's drive for me. Just let me know when you plan your next trip...
