Sounds like a worthy project; I always wondered what you could put into the 
empty space in the TS-DOS ROM.

Are you using Steve's 'new and improved for BT' version of NewDOS?

  Ken,


  I had to move more than 36 bytes but in the end I got it working. Pressing F7 
from the TWord file menu goes to the optrom code rather than trying to load the 
RAM version. The only issue I need to still iron out is pressing F8 from TS-DOS 
goes back to the menu rather than going back to TWord. That shouldn't be too 
hard to find.


  Thanks again for the help.



  Kurt

  Since they overlap by only 36 bytes, one option is to simply figure out what 
is in that overlapping region and relocate just that code, then patch any 
references to addresses in that range.

    Thanks for the update Ken,



    One question about the ROM versions of NewDos. I noticed on the versions 
you have in your memfiles area that the code has been relocated to a lower 
portion of the ROM. How difficult is it to relocate optrom code to a new 
location? The original versions started at 3535h.


    I ask because I have been working on merging TWord/Sardine with TS-DOS as 
one ROM image (Excluding the internal dictionary). I've found the location of 
the F7 call from the TWord main menu (1C28) and was planning to call TS-DOS 
from there but 3535h is about 36 bytes too low to work.

    Almost.


    Bob Pigford did some work on getting the NEWDOS assembly code ported over 
with T200 System ROM addresses and got it about 90-95% there I would guess.  
But additional work is still needed to get it to a working state.

      Does NewDOS exist for the 200?
