- \ README F83-88 convertions by Mike Nemeth see note
-
- The files in this archive must be renamed to .SEQ after you
- have preserved your original FF files. Then run FMETA.BAT to
- obtain a new fkernel.com and follow this by running EXTEND.BAT to
- make your new FF.EXE which incorporates the changes I have made
- to the screen writing routines.
- FF.EXE should come up in color on the cga card, and will still
- function normally on the monochrome monitor. To see the example
- of a pop-up screen, type HELP or VIEW at the forth prompt. Use
- VIEW WORDNAME to see how screen writing in color is improved.
- It should be quite easy to modify this code for any other
- machines that run DOS 3.xx, or any other forth having an
- assembler; if you have any difficulty or any suggestions, contact
- Mike Sperl c/o NCFB or drop me a note.
- Thanks to Tom Zimmer for making his monumental achievement
- available to the forth community. The underlying ideas for this
- enhancement came from my study of his code.
