Re: A86: TI-86, is asm programming comparable to the TI-85?



Does the ROM calls on the TI-85 apply to the TI-86? I am reading Zshell
lessons and am going to try to learn how
to program ASM on the TI-86 (my calculator), using asm86 as a guide for the
location of the ROM calls or whatever.
I figured, of course, that all the Z-80 stuff would be the same such as
registers, opcodes, etc, so the only thing
that could really change is the location of interrupts (or ROM calls or
whatever it is called on the Z80).. Are the
ROM routines the same between the TI-86 and TI-85..

 If that is so, it wouldn't really be hard to convert between a Zshell TI-85
program to a TI-86 program if you have
the source - well all you would really need to do is change the structure of
the asm file.. what else would you need
to know?

Does anyone know when Texas Instruments is giving out the documentation on
the TI-86 with asm programming?
It has been in the stores for two months, but it was created over half a
year ago.. How long will it take?
