Re: A83: 83 and 83+ linking
Blah, yes, the 83 Plus link port is a bit different than the 83 Link port.
Here's equates for both of them:
83 Plus -
dold1l = 3
dold1h = 1
dohd1l = 2
dohd1h = 0
83 -
dold1l = 0d3h
dold1h = 0d1h
dohd1l = 0d2h
dohd1h = 0d0h
Of course, if you use a ROM link routine, like SendAByte, then you don't
have to worry about calculator differences, since the protocol is the same
between all calculators. You just have to worry about locating the routine
in the ROM for each calculator (and this is already done for both the 83 and
83 Plus).
If you want the use "Ztetris" link routines, I think the latest 83 Plus Ion
version of Ztetris contains the source for both the 83 Plus version and the
83 version of the link routines.
