Publish MadLibApple prematurely?

Hi!  I have a program called MadLibApple.  It is a demo program for AuxMemApple, a cc65 memory extender for the Apple2enh target.  It shows how to use AuxMemApple to access aux memory and load data to aux RAM.  It also shows how to use ProDOSi and unused memory in main RAM.  AuxMemApple is not currently ready for publication, but MadLibApple is in working condition.  Should I release MadLibApple now?  If so, where can I upload it?

Hi!  I just uploaded another version of my printtok/cc65 C module.  It adds more tokens and support for multiple spaces compressed with RLE.  It works for the CBM, Apple2 and Atari 8-bit series.  You can find it at c65 additions - Manage /ui at SourceForge.net.  Try it out!

There's a bug in ProDOSi/cc65!

Hi!  I just wanted to share that there is a bug in my ProDOSi API for cc65: when returning an error, my code doesn't set gthe MSB to 0.  Therefore, you need to clear the MSB yourself by ANDing the returned value with 255.  Otherwise, is it good?

Video recreating my childhood Apple IIe bedroom setup

In my favourite & most personally meaningful video to date, I try to recreate my Apple //e childhood setup & more. As you’ll see, that little Apple is by far the more nostalgic & emotional memory for me. I hope you get some nostalgia hits from it too.

So I accidently purchased a IIGs and can't get a printer work.

So I have a Epson fx-890 with a Parallel port. I have a Quadram Phaser Serial to Prallel buffer box. I tested it with my PC and it works great. Not bad for a convert from 1983 or whatever date was on it. Now I hook my iigs up to it. using null modem, non null modem. Etc, etc. even found ou the baud out needs to be 9600. But no matter what port I use. The Printer or modem port. I get nothing or a very small, small amount of garbage. The cable that came with it was used for a modem and works great with ADT-PRo. I have some other cables that all seems to work great with ADT-Pro.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

cc65: crashes loading to $0800 on ProDOS system prg.

Hi!  I am working on a version of MadLib for AuxMemApple.  It is a ProDOS system program.  I load some code to the unused space between $0800 and $1000.  Excuting this code seems to crash the system: I get the monitor at location $A504.  I can just store this code in the main module, but I like using extra unused system memory via my Cubbyhole optimization technique.  :)  When I check the size of the data loaded to this memory, I get the number 65088.   I'm using ProDOSi to load the data.  I attached the config file and the code that loads the data.

Does Mapping the Apple 2 exist?

Hi!  I have the etexts of several of Compute!'s Mapping series.  They were pretty useful.  However, I just Googled the Apple 2 version and didn't find it.  :(  Does it exist?  If so, where can I find it?  If not, where can I find a memory map for the Apple 2 series?

AuxMemApple near completion

Hi!  I am working on my AuxMemApple library for the Apple2/cc65.  It is a memory extender that allows the usage of aux memory from cc65 programs.  I believe it's better than cc65's em libraries because it provides a way to access any byte or word in aux memory and string and memory functions that mirror the standard memory and string functions.  The library works so far.  Right now, I need to provide a way to reconnect the RAM drive at the end of the program, some demo programs and to write the manual.  Then, the first beta should be ready to upload.
