Re: Why is this code exiting to the basic prompt?
Ah, that's the part I don't think I explained very well in this thread
but I did elsewhere.
When starting the apple game server, you type IN#2 which enables the
serial port using firmware. This also turns on the buffering (and now
that I think about it probably also screws up the apple game server
periodically!)
Because I was going off the SSC reference guide, and assumed the //c
was basically similar **whoops**, this whole buffering thing eluded me.
But man, talk about STRANGE. I never thought I would see a BPL fail to
work normally. Makes me wonder how [and/or if] that whole buffering
code works to begin with!
