Yen sign

Oh yes. I see it when I type dir

By the way, does the program START.COM (for FDD emulation) support long paths (subdirectories) as parameter? I tried this but seems that is doesn't work. Maybe due to the back slash

Posted twice WHY? ^^;

And it's not because of the backslash. The Yen sign and the backslash have exactly the same ASCII code, the difference is purely graphical.

AFAIK there's no DOS loader for it and it's the last command in the AUTOEXEC.BAT anyway. I speed up all drive letters, even if it's not necessary.

The source was not hard to fix. Here are instructions:

- Fisrt of all change dos to be true. (dos: equ 1=1)
- Find "defile" it looks like this:

defile: di
push de
call move_system ; verschuif de systeem data
pop de

- add before push de "if .not. dos"
- add after pop de "endif"

In "chk_computer" routine there is instruction "ld a,(#2d)" change it to:
if dos
ld hl,#2d
ld a,(#fcc1)
call #c ; rdslot
else
ld a,(#2d)
endif

Ready.

Then, due to what?

I have no idea why

I actually hate that darn yen sign so much I ripped it out of my emulator Turbo-R rom and replaced it with the backslash again... Now all I need to do is burn it on my Turbo-R ROM

Some years ago I made an utility called "YENBAR" that replaces the yen character with a backslash. It just modifies the graphics data stored in DRAM (of course you need to be in R800 DRAM mode ) If someone is interested I can try to find it in my MSX HDD

was a mistake on my part!

It sounds cool enough. You think you still have the sources aswell? Or maybe we should make a TSR out of it?

You can find it here
Since it is a very short program, you can disassemble it easily to get the source
(Anyway, I will try to find it)

The contents of my AUTOEXEC.BAT are :-
set prompt=on
set date=dd/mm/yy
set path=c:\;c:\msxdos;c:\utils;..;.
ntsc
doskey
ver

My doskey program has a modification so that F4 is now 'menu' + chr$(13)

Autoexec.bat : SET PATH=A:\UTILS;A:\BAT SET EXPERT=ON SET MMUSIC=A:\MUSIC\MM MAP2

It catch my attetion that MAP2. Is it the same program that the CALL MAP2 from the ROM of Novaxis SCSI interface? I readed that it is an enhanced version of original MAP and it improves even more compatibility with DOS1. At the Utilmate MSX FAQ I readed that Philips EASE can run under DOS2 with MAP2.

Is it the very same program? Where can I download it?

I think a download link to MAP2.COM would be very useful...
