Once again musing about "DOS 3.3 for ProDOS"



This time I'm armed with a basic understanding of the ProDOS API, but still don't understand the inner workings of DOS.

I've thought of a few things which would be potentially viable with such a system: INTBASIC (lomem version) and a number of small BASIC programs with chargens (many of them break under ProDOS). Mostly this is advantageous to people with higher capacity disk drives.

The source of PDOS RDOS tells me what I need to know about interfacing on a basic (lol) level to ProDOS but I haven't seen something similar for DOS 3.3. I am thinking I will want to merely patch out the file manager and RWTS, and replace INIT with BYE. Doing the former is the most difficult.
