Hello there,
The following sentences are excerpts from System 6.0 Developer CD
which I find interesting:
• StartUpTools now knows how to start tools 35 (MIDI Synth), 37 (the
not-complete Animation tool) and 38 (Media Control).
> Has anyone seen the animation toolset?
• When loading Expressed files, the Loader no longer locks and unlocks
all the ExpressLoad handles every time it makes a Memory Manager
call. Similarly, it no longer tries to allocate memory in unusable
banks $80 through $FF.
> Do emulators patch ExpressLoad to make it load Expressed files above bank $80?
• System Call ERS
> Anyone has the latest version of that so-secret documentation that refers to GS/OS system calls, some of them are described on the Device Driver reference and some others on BD's site.
Any comments appreciated,
antoine
