Initial IIgs implementation #7

Closed david-schmidt closed 9 years ago

Here's the first pass. The bad: it's in ca65 assembler. It spews out some garbage until you jiggle the mouse at the IIgs end. The good: It works.

I also added a check for GS-ness in the initial STARTUP command; it is simply this: 45 IF PEEK (49691) = 235 THEN A2$ = "A2PIGS"

This will probably have to get reworked a little, as I have the A2Pi card in a GS, and this will kill it. But, there is more work to be done for the new A2Pi card, v2 that has a ROM on it.

The core concepts are simple - the interaction with the SCC chip is just a little different than the SSC card, and of course we can assume the mouse card is in slot 4. That's all I did to the original a2pi.s code... removing the sniffing code made enough room for the SCC initialization table.

And, yeah, if you put the pi card in a GS, that will invalidate the communications assumptions...
