Apple II

I just picked up a Silentype printer at a flea market that looks to be in exceptional condition given its age. It even came with a roll of thermal paper (that may or may not be any good.) I connected it to my Apple ///, installed the silentype driver and sent a few commands from Business Basic. It appears to go through all the motions (w/o paper installed) - I see the print head move back and forth and the roller advances as I would expect. 

Hello friends:

I am in the process of building a Brain Board II. I have everything assembled, but I am confused about how to program the EPROM.  I have read Mike's manual from the original Brain Board, but I don't quite understand the table about programming the board.  I have 27c128's and 27c256's available. 

Are the values in the columns offsets for each rom file? In other words, when setting up the programmer, do I put the D000 rom at offet 0x1000, rom D800 at offset 0x1800, etc?

Any pointers are most appreciated.

Cheers,

mark

Thanks to MG, there will be a new version on the ROM 4X coming out soon that provides additional support for both the ROMXc and the Xdrive2c. And it will automatically detect if one or both of these devices is present and provide the appropriate commands. Although the Xdrive2c is still in beta testing, anyone with a ROMXc can test the new ROM image from this disk.The only difference you should see is the new "8" command which will now take you directly to the ROMXc menu.

Hello all,

    I am trying to set up a simply development environment on my Mac to learn 6502 assembly on Apple II, it's got the following components

• Emulator: Mariani (AppleWin Mac port)
• Editor: VS Code
• Assembler: Merlin32
• Disk Image handling: CiderPress2

Basically the workflow is

1. assemble the source using Merlin32

2. using CiderPress2 to import the produced binary into disk image (.po, .do) file 

3. using CiderPress2 to set proper attributes (BINARY, AUX)

4. reboot Mariani.
