[ wavy lines ] [ do-do-do-do ] [ wavy lines ] I've got the complete TRS-80 (mind you, I) ROM disassmbled and *hand annotated* . Yep, just had to figure that shit out back in the late >gasp< 70's. So I wrote a disassembler and slogged through it. Rolled tightly in really tiny print, it's a couple centimeters diameter's worth. That's about when I *first* decided I could do a better job than Microblob... and make my own programming language, written in Z80 assembly of course! And I've still got the good _Creative_Computings_ too! [ slap ] Ow! Uh, oh. > Sigh, those were the days... :-) Agreed.... jdl
