84' YE-OSI DOS Documentation

Back in 1984 I've started programming my own DOS, because other software was expensive and running on 8inch drives. Also the OSI 65D disk operating system was a messy construct using most of the lower memory. When I got hold of a YE-Data 3.5 inch drive for cheap, what else to than to program your own operating system. Here the documentation for YE-OSI DOS 3.54 and the DOSSUP program supplementing aditional Disk Basic commands. YE-OSI Dos requires an alternative ROM installed at $F800 called EPROM1_V54.ROM

The latest X version does not require any extra Boot ROM or memory in the upper 0xE000 areas, but comes with less free memory for user programs.

C++ 6502 Devellopment

Recently, I discovered the  KickC - Optimizing C-compiler for 6502 platforms under https://gitlab.com/camelot/kickc/-/tree/master. The attched toolset will compile C-code to the C1P machine and execute the program generated with WinOsi. The IDE used for it is JFE (Jen's File Editor). To run on other machines, the file path has to be adjusted. A simple "Helloworld" program is included.       Credits :Rex of Camelot

This includes topics like:
- Using a 610 RAM/Floppy expansion board
- 610 DATA Separator Plug-in board for standard Floppy disk
- SB600 and 610 32k memory expansion board
- Fastloader module for SD-card and serial USB connection 
- SB600/C1P adding graphic capabilities
- SB600 Revision B flicker fix
