But I would like to use an assembler that makes the whole procedure (writing programs and assembling) a lot easier and faster. Every PC has audio in/out, so it'd be a matter of hooking Applewin to those jacks. I'm using the AppleWin emulator with Merlin Pro assembler v.2.43 (disk image) and I'm very excited with learning 6502 assembly language with the help of Assembly Lines: The complete book by Roger Wagner. In the Apple II, the CP was (and remains) a valuable resource. Today it's used to bootstrap machines with ADTPro, and actually run games from your iPod with Apple Game Server. And let us not forget the numerous educational science kits that used it as an I/O port. And we had a v-sync wire where the CP detected part of the videosignal. It can run programs from disk images The. The Apple used the cassette port like an aux speaker output, and even input for digitizing sound. AppleWin is an emulator for the aforementioned 8-bit computer that can be run on Windows and enable you to get a taste of the early Apple computers. Think of it as peer-to-peer short range 10 meter network. I also built a two-way communications wire I strung between my and my buddy's bedroom window and I could program something and send it to him that way. PMC and Tandy disks was added after the initial product introduction. I built a "modem" that connected to the cassette port, it was slow and naturally required some manual setup, but it worked. And its not just for IBM PC disks it also understands formats used by Apple. back in the day when I/O options were limited and expensive, every little bit helped. Fast DOS' don't always operate at fast speeds. Beginning with the inability to change disk volumes on a mounted image. Some people may believe Cassette Ports are like meh. But there are several things missing in Applewin emulation for example: 1- Low-Level disk access and manipulation. This should tide me over until Applewin IIgs is ready for primetime. You can download it here: Stand-Alone application. And the older client like 2.41 is nicely suited to archiving old disks. I still use Copy II+ on occasion, but Ciderpress meets most of my needs.Įdit: Well it turns out the online version is available as a standalone version. It doesn't make use of any new hardware aside from the PC of course. Without Ciderpress, you would need Applewin and ADTPro. I agree that Applewin, Ciderpress are indispensable for working with disk images, especially Ciderpress. I would rather have an Applewin equivalent so I can save my games, etc. It was perfect for playing games though because you could just go there and boot it up. Disk images are compatible with common Apple II emulation tools such as AppleWin and Ciderpress. I liked the online Apple IIgs emulator, but it doesn't support the latest browsers the last time I checked. What features and functionality would you like to see added to Applewin? One I can think of would be to eventually emulate more of the hardware cards that were available for it, but that might not be worth the effort in many cases.
