I am learning to program in applesoft but want to know how to use the Apple Mouse or joystick in it, can someone give a short example or tell me how?
The mouse is a little more complicated than the joystick. Here's something to show the coordinates of the joystick, anyway:
10 PRINT "X: ";PDL(0);TAB(9);"Y: ";PDL(1) 20 GOTO 10
The PDL() calls will return a value from 0 to 255 on the X or Y axes of the joystick.
Here's an example of a paint program, written in Applesoft: http://vectronicsappleworld.com/appleii/simpleplotter.html
Okay, thanks!
