SAM Tech Manual Bug
Hi, I just noticed a bug in the SAM Tech Manual (3.0), so I'm pointing it out in case anyone else gets bitten by it. On page 16, example code for scanning the keyboard is given, which contains the instruction: SCF ;set carry flag for RLC B ;rotate next address line This should have been RL B, as RLC is _without_ carry. Cheers, -- Stuart Brady
tech manual
Hi, I just noticed that the copy of the tech manual on nvg doesn't contain Appendix C or the index. There's also an extra page at the end regarding the ANYIV variable in ROM 1.2. I don't really have anything that can edit pdfs, but maybe someone else would like to fix it. I can scan the pages in if needed. Cheers, -- Stuart Brady

I can't remember where I got it from (or the 5MB scanned PDF of the SAM User Guide), but I can e-mail it to you if you want it (162K zipped). I've also just tried checking NVG for it but it seems to be down at the moment (Frode?). That would be great. Hopefully it will still be possible to do searches once it's in PDF form. Yeah, as long as it's generated from a text source it'll be searchable, and select/copy will work in the Text mode in Acrobat. Do you think I should even try and do the small print bits for the sound and disk controller chips? I've always wondered if the original documents were available online somewhere, but I've not managed to find them. The text on my floppy controller document is quite difficult to read, so an updated version of that would certainly be very handy - of course, it's easy for me to say that when someone else is doing it!. btw, the old OCR'd tech manual doesn't include the sound and disk controller documents, if that's the main reason you're after it.
