Patch list for CATMSFT and CATPCPI CP/M Apple-Cat II modem programs I have decided not to include the source files, but many of the operating parameters and features of the programs can be changed by changing bytes with DDT or EDFILE (Edfile is definitely easier!). This is an edited version of the .PRN file which resulted from the assembly of the front end module of the program. The addresses are the same for both the Softcard and PCPI versions. Here is a quick example of how you would use DDT to change an operating parameter. Lets say you decided you could really use that extra two k of buffer, so you want to tell the program not to save the CCP but to warm boot instead (which frees up the memory). Looking at the table you would find that the byte SAVCCP is located 010F in memory. It is set to FF to indicate that saving the ccp is desired. To make the change (IMPORTANT: do this on a COPY so that you can go back if you mess it up!) you would bring the program in with DDT thus: DDT CATMSFT.COM (some numbers will appear, which you don't need to worry about. If you get a ? that means that DDT could not find the file.) to change the byte, use the S command (for Set bytes) and type: S10F DDT responds with 010F FF (the cursor remains to the right of the byte waiting for you to change the value or hit return). Type in a zero and hit return. DDT will respond with the next byte in memory to be changed. Simply type a period to exit the S mode (and a 'return'). Type control-C to exit ddt. Now you want to save your modified file back to disk. The standard command is SAVE 85 CATPCPI.COM (for the applicard version) SAVE 75 CATMSFT.COM (for the softcard version). That's all there is to it. Good Luck! (P.S.: If anyone really wants to play with the source code, I can supply it. It is not possible to change the slot of the apple-cat from slot two without re-assembling. Since 99.9% of the Apple world runs their modems in slot two, the best solution is just to move it over. If there is some reason you cannot do this, contact me and I will assemble you a version for the slot you need, or provide you with the source if thats appropriate. At this point, this program must be assembled and Linked with the Assembly Language Development System for the Apple II from Microsoft. (I can provide the patches to make the assembler work with the Applicard, provided you do own the software.)) 0109' 00 BAKUPBYTE: ;FF=make .BAK file 010A' 00 CKSUMDFLT: ;FF=default to Checksum checking 010B' FF TOGLCRC: ;FF=allow toggling of Checksum to CRC 010C' 00 CONVBKSP: ;FF=convert backspace to rub 010D' FF TOGLBK: ;FF=allow toggling of bksp to rub 010E' 00 ADDLF: ;FF=add LF after CR 010F' FF TOGLLF: ;FF=allow toggling of LF after CR 0110' FF STRLF: ;FF=strip LF after CR in terminal file output 0101' FF TOGSLF: ;FF=toggle strip LF after CR in file output 0102' FF SAVCCP: ;FF=DO NOT OVERWRITE CCP 0113' 00 LOCONEXTCHR: ;FF=local command if EXTCHR precedes 0114' FF TOGLLOC: ;FF=allow toggling of LOCONEXTCHR 0115' FF LSTTST: ;FF=ALLOW TOGGLING OF PRINTER ON/OFF ;***** WARNING ***** ;The three mode bytes XOFFTXT, XONWAIT, and ECHWAIT are mutually exclusive ; modes.
