i found yesterday in my garage my first assembly book.  it's french ( for one time )
" initiation au language assembler de l'ordinateur familial TEXAS INSTRUMENTS TI99" ( avec le module mini mémoire )  SHIFT EDITION

Somebody interested ?

[retroclouds]

If you have a PDF scan of it, then I can add it to the thread.  As a matter of fact I think we have been ignoring the european languages just a bit too much. I have been thinking of adding a section for PDF scans of books written in dutch, german, italian, spanish, ...

[Ksarul]

As one of the strange people that has an extensive collection of books on the TI in many languages (English, French, German, Dutch, Italian, and Spanish), I am definitely interested in this book, as it is one I have not seen before.  I have a couple of others from SHIFT EDITION, but this one is definitely new to me.  As to scanning the books from other languages, Retroclouds--that is on my voluminous list of things to do. . .some of them cover subjects that didn't make it into the English side very often as well.  I have one very good book on TurboPASC99 and a number of good books on Assembly (all of these are in German).

ok, it's scanned, ( not very well, sorry me, my scanner really suc** )

Thanks for doing the scan, but were you able to put it up anywhere for download?

[arcadeshopper]

Note: Fred Kaal's sites are down until April 2012 due to his relocating.

I am uploading his files to ftp.whtech.com/fredkaal most of them are already there will get the rest there asap.

These are the files for the Turbo Pasc'99 Pascal development environment for the TI 99/4A designed by Wiposoft in 1986. The zip file contains 4 disk images in V9t9 format for the compiler, libraries and demos. The original German manual was translated by apersson850 (Thanks!!!!) to English.

While Turbo Pasc'99 is not as complete an implementation of Pascal as the UCSD Pascal system, it does have the advantage of not requiring any special hardware other than 32K RAM and a disk drive, and will likely meet the programming needs of most TIers.

I hope you find this package useful


ADDENDUM: The current compiler disk image currently has issues. I am working at finding a fix if possible.

Updated the sticky thread with the below:

* Added the TI-Forth instruction manual as edited by Lee Stewart. Thanks Lee
* Fixed some broken links. Very happy to see that Fred's site is back up. Also sometimes99er' tools seem to be available again. That is mighty cool

[retroclouds]

Updated the sticky thread:

* Merged section "9. Web sites" and "10. Software repositiories" into "9. Web sites"
* Added the OCR'ed & tweaked source code of TI-Invaders to section "7. Tutorials". Thanks Stuart!

If anyone wants all GPL Turorials with the Zips I can send them along with the movies on Youtube as I have the Quicktime movies originals that can be changed to any format.

[retroclouds]

Broken link fixed.

[retroclouds]

It was time for an update of the sticky thread:

* Merged sections "Programming Libraries" and "Compilers" and renamed to "Toolkits and Compilers"
* Added The Missing Link 2.0 to "Toolkits and Compilers"
* Added the patched version of Turbo Pasc'99 to the Programming languages section

[RXB]

For some reason the link to GPLHOW2E is broken here is the right one that works.

[retroclouds]

* Fixed broken download for Magellan, by replacing it with my updated unofficial v1.3 version.
* Fixed broken youtube link for GPL2E

[retroclouds]

Sticky thread updated:

* V9t9 emulator added to "Emulators" section (Author: eswartz)
* TIImageTool added to "File Transfer" section (Author: mizapf)
* XB Compiler v2.1 added to "Toolkits AND Compilers" section (Author: senior_falcon)

It looks like the win994a emulator has been updated (see the post on the Yahoo group below), and it fixes the assembler bug among other things. This is indeed great news!

Hi Guys-

Please excuse the cross post. Just wanted to let everybody that Cory Burr
released a new version of Win994a.

Updates:

-This version of Win994a is fairly light on changes. Mainly, these are technical
internal modifications and most folks won't see any difference.

-The "X" (eXecute) cpu opcode has been modified to function correctly. In past
versions, failure of this opcode caused several cartridges to malfunction, often
resulting in crashes and Win994a reboots. Opcodes that set the "carry flag" were
modified slightly.

-The Win994a Preferences Dialog has been modified to include a fast 16bit access
32K Extended Memory option.

-The Disk Manager application has virtually stayed the same.

-The assembler application has been revised and updated to correct a problem
with the resulting machine code generated by a few conditional branch op codes.

You can download it at:

Just a little notice... The link for TI-99Dir is broken.  =)

[Lee Stewart]

Yeah, all of Fred's stuff needs to have the "members.ziggo.nl/fredgkaal" part of his links replaced with "home.vodafonevast.nl/fgkaal".

...lee

[Opry99er]

Ahhh... good stuff there.  Thanks alot, Lee.

[retroclouds]

Multiple changes:

* Added 2nd Edition of the TI Forth Instruction Manual, updated and enhanced by Lee Stewart
* Fixed the URL's pointing to Fred's homepage. Seems that Fred is a moving target
* Added LGMA Products' FORTRAN v4.4 to the programming language section.
* Added reference to the TI99ers Hall Of Fame where appropriate (http://www.ti99hof.org/index.html)
