Well Glen, what may be a waste of time for me won't necessarily be a waste of
time for you, so I'll let you poke around on your own ;-) .
In general, you're out of luck with any of the sound capabilities for now, as
well as anything requiring a mouse - i.e. Mark's SKEL program, the paint
program, newdir, etc.
Although, now that I think of it, Kevin may have posted a patch to the COCO
list on using the mouse with /t0... Kev, what's the scoop???
I'm really anxious to try out the sound capabilities of the machine - I'd
like to try patching the error handler to say "I'm sorry, Dave, but I can't do
that" (from 2001) on a 215 or 216 error.
I've run a null modem cable between this '386 and the MM/1 for now so that I
can transfer programs between the CoCo and what I d/l from CIS to the MM/1 and
it's proving to be a very satisfactory solution... got all my GIF files on MM/1
floppies, and although they load painfully slowly from floppy, they look as
good, if not better on the MM/1. Get Mike H's GIFSHOW4 from the lib - it has
lots of features not on the one that comes with the MM/1.
...Jim
