Re: CAPSLED

More to point is it would require bending pin out, not something I would want to do to a reprogrammble 8749. Could do with some PCB wizard designing a small board to breakout other usable pins on Hermes.

Re: Hermes status

This confuses me is ipc_asm.zip the same original code as ipc8049.txt? Yes, but only if you just want a list of opcodes and don't find meaningful comments useful, then no, I guess the're the same. Though data blocks/function may be misconstrued. That makes the code Hermes_2.zip PrOf posted the only...

Re: Hermes status

I am confused isn't it better to work on the disassembly PrOf has posted since that is Hermes and all the other stuff is old crap as well as this being an up date on the status of Hermes?) At the time I did the disassembly of original IPC code (2019) I'd already assumed by then Hermes would probabl...

Re: Hermes status

Thanks Prof and Derek for uploads.

Here is my take on the original IPC code. I haven't reviewed it yet so be interested to hear if anything doesn't seem correct.

Re: file problem

Here is a quick Quill export in text (verbatim).

BTW it is attributed to Laurence Reeves but IMHO it isn't. I think it is JV (known early QL'er)

Re: Hermes status

An 8749 adaptor board for QEP III could well work with other QL programmers (if IO and Vprog is similar). Easier than redesigning a new programmer from scratch. I had a close look at QEP III circuit and don't think it would take much to do, TBC.

Re: PIC for 8049

Ah, no, that's a completely different thing, I recall it now, QLub is USB Device to QL network interface. Wheras the CH559 with the github code provides an easy USB Host interface for keyboard and mouse (and with other code, as host to other USB devices).
