Apologies for the shaky cam, but my phones' cameras have crapped themselves and the tablet's motion camera is so much clearer than it's still camera :/

Re: I guess I just build a...screensaver?
I was inspired by all the clocks being posted, so I thought I'd add my own to this thread; the timing code for this clock also originated from this thread. https://streamable.com/285jt 'Keeping time using the '59.98 Hz frame counter const TICKS = 60 const SECSX = &h60A0 const SECSY = &h61A0 ...

Re: Interrupts:
The vector can also come from outside zero page. We still have 3 unused bytes in page 1 at $1f6..$1f8. Alternatively, we can simply jump to a fixed address. Except I like to have a mechanism that switches this off completely (I think...), so some variable will be needed. A single bit will do. Of co...

Re: Help to understand src rom code
Because of the instruction pipelining, (there's a good explanation of how it works here https://gigatron.io/media/gigatron-hackerhotel.pdf), there is always a branch delay slot following every branch in native code. In simpler terms; every instruction following a branch is always executed, (even if ...

Whilst finishing this BASIC compiler I am working on, one of the things I have been implementing is a time sliced architecture that allows a chained set of routines to run in a real time fashion. e.g. I want my audio routines, (sound and MIDI), to playback uninterrupted and at the correct tick rate ...

Re: Problems with Babelfish (Arduino Nano?)
I'll tackle it this weekend, I'm about to release a beta version of my BASIC compiler in the next couple of days. P.S. I whipped up a quick breadboard version of the new circuit using my second Nano and it works great with the latest BabelFish, although it took me a couple of minutes of head scratch...

Re: Problems with Babelfish (Arduino Nano?)
I was having a quick play with the new version of BabelFish and couldn't get it to run with my Nano hardware; then it struck me that the hardware configuration for the Nano has changed as it now supports controller and PS2 functionality, which is great and a welcome addition in functionality.
