Willsy Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Yo TurboForth V1.2.1:2 (the :2 just means "build 2") is hereby released. The *only* change is a change to the word >MAP which handles mapping of SAMS memory into the 32K memory of the TI. V1.2.1:1 had a somewhat buggy implementation. If anyone is working with the SAMS Programming Library from the TF website then they should switch to TF V1.2.1:2 immediately, and possibly update their SAMS Programming Library code (the version on the web site is completely up to date). I have not put the binaries on the TF website just yet. I'll do that tomorrow. Here's a version for Classic99 attached. Put it in your MODS folder. out yourself knock Mark TurboForth V1.2.1-2.zip 4 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/238254-turboforth-v1212-released/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
+mizapf Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Here's the RPK and the DSK for MESS users. For 80 column mode use the ti99_4ev driver. turboforth_1.2.1.2.rpk turboforth.dsk 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/238254-turboforth-v1212-released/#findComment-3236658 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opry99er Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Thanks WILLSY!!! I need to update my TF cart... I think I have 1.0. Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/238254-turboforth-v1212-released/#findComment-3236661 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opry99er Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 (edited) Hey Willsy, can you hook me up with some examples of File IO outside the block structure? For instance, how would one go about inputting data from (or writing data TO) a DV80 file into a Forth program? I would like to build a text document generator in Forth... Currently I have a couple programs in XB which I have written that do these things, but I am thinking Forth might give me some extra freedoms and speed. I am reading (right now) the glossary on turboforth.net, but am having something of a time trying to recreate the functionality of my XB program. THANKS!

Shift838 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 IO examples would be nice.. I have been trying to find some myself. Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/238254-turboforth-v1212-released/#findComment-3236809 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willsy Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 Yes no problem. I think the file io section is the only section in the tutorials section on the site that I haven't finished yet. I'll post something here over the coming days as a test-bed for what goes on the site.

Shift838 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 now if I can remember which emprom to use to burn this new version. I think it's a 27C64 or is it a 27C128 ?

Willsy Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 Good question... I forget... Well, it's 16KBx8bits = (16*1024)*8=131072 so I think it's the 27C128. Bob Carmany shoud be able to chime in.

+mizapf Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 I was not sure about putting both BLOCKS and TFTOOLS on the same image - is that OK? Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/238254-turboforth-v1212-released/#findComment-3236909 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willsy Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 That should work just fine for MESS. The BLOCKS disk defines a word called TOOLS which just loads the TFTOOLS from DSK1 - so as long as both files fit on a physical disk (they're 80K each) it'll be just fine.

atrax27407 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Is the version on the website more current than the one I have (March 7th)? Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/238254-turboforth-v1212-released/#findComment-3236942 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willsy Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 Use the version above. It's the most current. Website not updated yet. Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/238254-turboforth-v1212-released/#findComment-3236974 Share on other sites More sharing options...
atrax27407 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 The EPROM is a 27128 or 27C128. FILE>BLK in the BLOCKS file transfers a D/V80 file into BLOCKS. BLK>FILE in the BLOCKS file transfers a BLOCK into a D/V80 file. The instructions for use should appear on the screen after the application loads.
