I went looking to see what OS_Byte &64 is, and I have a suggestion...
BeebWiki -> Programming -> ???
Under 'O' is Opus DDOS.
Would this not also be a logical place to put OSBYTE, OSWORD, *FX, etc etc?
There it is, under Programming -> API -> OSWBYTE! :-)
Some other thoughts...
OSBYTE &64 - Enter SPY debugger.
Should this mention that it is an add-on and not part of the core
system?
Likewise:
OSBYTE &9F - Write to Speech Processor
Should this mention that it requires additional hardware beyond the
bog-standard Beeb?
There is some stuff I could add - OSCLI, PAGE, VDU5, 5050 (some examples
from the Wanted list), problem is I've never written a wikidoc. Is there
a "dummies guide to..." anywhere that I can read before playing in the
sandbox for a while?
Best wishes,
Rick.
