- MODE87
- ------
-
- Mode87 installs itself in the RMA as "BBCEconet". The way to tell
- the difference from this and the original Acorn network module,
- is that the address of where the module lies is at &01xxxxxx
- instead of a ROM address (&03xxxxxx) by typeing *Modules.
- If Acorn`s original module is not *Unplugged, it will install
- itself on top of this. Mode87 overwrites any !Boot file seen.
- And if there isn`t one, it creates a new one :
-
- | Boot file
- IconSprites <Obey$Dir>.!Sprites
- RMLoad <Obey$Dir>.Mode87
- [00][00][00]
-
- Then it proceeds to save itself as a module with the filename
- "Mode87". If it has reached an infection count of 256, an
- expanding circle (black, if you are using the standard desktop
- palette) will "eat" your screen. Mode87 releases its vector claim
- on OS_FSControl, so it is quite safe to *RMKill it.
