+Allan Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Does anybody have a copy of the Disassembler from the December, 1985 issue of Compute magazine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Larry Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 I looked really good, and I actually have no programs from Compute! for 1985. But here's a thought... what if we got a group of volunteers and each did a block of lines using the Compute! "Automatic Proofreader?" "Many hands..." So no individual would have to do the whole thing? I'd volunteer for that. We could LIST the lines and send them to you? What would you think of a group project -- feasible? (Assuming that no one has it.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Allan Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 I knew it was a long shot but I thought I would try. I am typing it in now. I am at line 1000. If I come across a really big listing a might try your suggestion if we can a get a few people to do it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Allan Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 I might need someone to try the program to see if it works OK (No typing bugs). I should finish it today (I hope). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rybags Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 OCR will work on the old 9-pin printouts. But you'd be spending almost as much time manually correcting it as you would typing it in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been decades of OCR tech but it just never gets better when it comes to program listings. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Larry Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 I first tried to OCR programs when all we had were those 4" (or so) hand scanners. Early 90's? What a disaster! I wonder if there is some way that we could use the "proofreader" programs with output from OCR'd text. I also once wrote a program to parse OCR output to correct common errors in OCR'd Basic listings. It helped, but still had lots of errors that had to be found/fixed.

+Allan Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 So here is the disassembler/sector reader. Please give it a try and see if I didn't add any bugs. Ignore the other three files on the disk. Disassembler_Test.atr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Allan Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 Bugs in my data statements. I will re-upload it in a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Allan Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 I am missing four data and can't seem to find them. Argg!! The FOR-NEXT loop runs out of data at 252. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
800XLNZ Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Little late to the party. Attached disk has disassembler (modified for enhanced density disks) as well as COMPUTE! proofreaders and other programs. Just change sector numbers from 1023/1024 to 719/720 to get back to original disassembler listing. Misc_Atari8bit_Type-ins_001.atr 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To save a little time, can you tell us where the data reader code is (lines) and the data statements (lines) where you think they are missing?

+Allan Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 OK. I am going with 800XLNZ's version. I returned the 1023/1024 to 719/720. Tested it and it seems to work. Thanks, guys. I am trying to type in all the programs from the December, 1985 issue of Compute! magazine. I just have to de-bug the Diary program and then I will post it in the other thread I made. 720_Sector_Disassembler.atr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
