128 DISK MENU & 64 DISK MENU...THESE TWO ARE BASICALLY THE SAME PROGRAMS. THEY WILL ENABLE YOU TO CREATE A MENU FOR EAC H OF YOUR DISKS FROM WHICH YOU CAN LOAD THE DESIRED PROGRAM WITH A KEYPRESS. TH E 128 VERSION HAS SOME ADDED FEATURES WH ICH I WILL DESCRIBE LATER, BUT APART FRO M THAT BOTH VERSIONS ARE ROUGHLY EQUAL. SO I WILL DESCRIBE THE 64 VERSION FIRST :..WHEN YOU WANT TO PLACE A MENU ON A DI SK YOU DO LIKE THIS: FIRST LOAD AND RUN THE MENU PROGRAM FROM THE DISK DRIVE TH AT YOU WILL USE TO PLACE THE NEW MENU ON A DISK (THE PROGRAM WILL ALWAYS USE THE LAST DRIVE ACCESSED). NOTE THAT IF THE START OF BASIC ADDRESS HAS BEEN MOVED F OR SOME REASON, THE MENU PROGRAM WILL RE FUSE TO RUN. AS THE DISK MENU IS AN ML PROGRAM IT MUST BE EXECUTED IN THE CORRE CT ADDRESS SPACE TO WORK. YOU WILL NOW SEE AN ALMOST EMPTY MENU. NOW INSERT TH E DISK TO RECEIVE THE MENU, SELECT DEFIN E TO CREATE A NEW MENU. IN CASE YOU HAV E DONE A MISTAKE, YOU WILL BE PROMPTED T O CONFIRM YOUR COMMAND. AFTER THAT, YOU WILL BE REMINDED OF YOUR CHOICES ON THE TOP OF THE SCREEN, AND THE FIRST PRG FI LE IN THE DIRECTORY WILL BE DISPLAYED. YOU HAVE THE FOLLOWING CHOICES:..(R)UN.. THIS WILL LOAD THE PROGRAM INTO THE BASI C AREA AND THEN RUN WHEN IT IS CHOSEN FR OM THE MAIN MENU. USE ON ALL PROGRAM TH AT IS RUN WITH A RUN STATEMENT...(B)OOT. .THIS WILL LOAD THE PROGRAM INTO THE ADD RESS SPACE SPECIFIED IN THE FILE, SIMILA R TO LOAD"PROG.",8,1. THEN A BASIC SYS WILL BE EXECUTED TO THE ADDRESS ON WHICH THE PROGRAM WAS LOADED. ON THE 128 A B OOT COMMAND WILL BE USED, ON THE 64 VERS ION THIS STATEMENT IS SIMULATED BY THE M ENU PROGRAM...(S)KIP..YOU MIGHT NOT WANT ALL PROGRAMS IN THE DIRECTORY TO APPEAR ON THE MENU, SO USE THIS KEY IF THAT IS THE CASE...USE (D)IVIDER..USING THIS KE Y YOU MAY LEAVE A MENU ENTRY EMPTY TO IM PROVE THE LOGICAL APPEARANCE OF YOUR MEN U...WHEN YOU HAVE BEEN THROUGH ALL PROGR AMS IN THE DIRECTORY, THE MENU PROGRAM W ILL SAVE ITSELF TO THE DISK UNDER THE NA ME "!" MENU. THIS NAME IS SELECTED BECA USE IF YOU USE A DISK SORTING UTILITY, T HE MENU PROGRAM WILL (ALMOST) ALWAYS BEC OME FIRST IN THE DIRECTORY. THE YOU CAN JUST LOAD THE MENU BY LOAD "!",8, AND T HEN RUN (ON THE 128 IT'S EVEN SHORTER: R U"! THEN RETURN). IF A MENU IS ALREADY PRESENT, IT WILL AUTOMATICALLY BE SCRATC HED. MAKE SURE THAT THE DISK DON'T CONT AIN ANY FILE WITH THE NAME "!", AS IT WI LL BE ERASED. NOW YOU WILL BE BACK AT TH E MENU ITSELF WHICH WILL NOW BE FILLED W ITH THE NAMES OF YOUR PROGRAMS. IF YOU HAVE INCLUDED MORE PROGRAMS THAN THE 36 THAT WILL FIT ON THE MENU, PRESS SPACE T O REVEAL A NEW PAGE. THE NUMBER OF PAGE S AVAILABLE IS LIMITED ONLY BY MEMORY SP ACE, SO IT WOULD IN THEORY BE POSSIBLE T O CREATE A MENU CONTAINING WELL OVER 200 0 PROGRAMS! SINCE MOST COMMODORE DISK D RIVES CAN HOLD ONLY 144 FILES, YOU WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO FILL MORE THAN FOUR PAG ES, BUT THE 1581 CAN HOLD TWICE THE NUMB ER OF FILES, SO EIGHT PAGES WOULD BE POS SIBLE. NOW, JUST PRESS THE APPROPRIATE KEY TO RUN THE DESIRED PROGRAM. IF YOU HAVE CHOSEN BOOT ON A PROGRAM YOU CAN IN MOST CASES RUN THE MENU AGAIN WITH RUN WITHOUT HAVING TO RELOAD. NICE IF YOU W ANT TO INSTALL SEVERAL UTILITIES AT ONCE . THE FIRST ENTRY OF THE FIRST PAGE WIL L ALWAYS BE THE MENU PROGRAM ITSELF, SO IF YOU WANT TO EXAMINE ANOTHER DISK (WIT H A MENU) THEN INSERT THE DISK AND PRESS THE ZERO KEY TO RUN THE MENU ON THE NEW DISK...YOU CAN AT ANY TIME DEFINE A NEW MENU, THERE IS NO NEED TO LOAD A SEPARA TE MENU CREATOR UTILITY; IT IS INCORPORA TED INTO THE MENU ITSELF. SO, IF YOU WA NT TO CREATE A MENU ON A NEW DISK, JUST LOAD THE MENU FROM ANY OF YOUR DISKS, IN SERT THE NEW DISK, AND PRESS CHOOSE CREA TE. PRACTICAL OR WHAT?..128 DISK MENU A DDED FEATURES:.THE 128 VERSION WILL ADJU ST ITSELF AUTOMATICALLY ACCORDING TO THE CURRENT ACTIVE SCREEN, 40 OR 80 COLUMNS . BUT THE GREATEST ADVANTAGE IS THAT IT CAN LOAD AND RUN (BUT NOT BOOT) 64 MODE PROGRAMS. IF YOU WANT TO RUN A 64 PROG RAM FROM THE 128 MENU, CHOOSE TO BOOT IN STEAD OF RUN WHEN YOU CREATE YOUR MENU. THEN, 128 DISK MENU WILL LOOK AT THE LO AD ADDRESS OF THE PROGRAM WHEN IT'S LOAD ED, AND THEN DECIDE WHETHER IT'S A 64 OR 128 PROGRAM. IF THE START ADDRESS IS L OWER THAN 2816, IT IS ASSUMED THAT IT'S A 64 PROGRAM. DUE TO THE 128'S MEMORY U SAGE, YOU WILL PROBABLY NEVER SEE A PROG RAM THAT BOOTS INTO AN ADDRESS LOWER THA N 2816 (THE CASSETTE/BOOT BUFFER). THE REASON WHY I HAVE ELECTED TO USE BOOT IN STEAD OF RUN TO SELECT 64 MODE PROGRAMS IS THAT 128 MODE BASIC PROGRAMS OFTEN FO R SOME UNKNOWN REASON HAVE A LOAD ADDRES S EVEN LOWER THAN 64 MODE PROGRAMS...THE RE ARE THREE EXTREMELY USES FOR THIS FEA TURE:..1) YOU CAN USE THE FAST 1571 TO L OAD YOUR 64 PROGRAMS. THIS WILL BE ESPE CIALLY USEFUL FOR GAMES AND OTHER LONG P ROGRAMS. THE MENU PROGRAM CAN HANDLE FI LES OF UP TO 249 BLOCKS IN SIZE..2) IT W ILL BE VERY EASY TO USE DOUBLE SIDED MOD E WHEN YOU STORE YOUR 64 PROGRAMS, AND T HEREBY USING THE DISK SPACE MORE EFFECTI VELY..3) ONE THIRD PRACTICAL USE I HAVE DISCOVERED IS TOGETHER WITH UTILITY PROG RAMS. ALL COMPUTER USERS HAVE A COLLECT ION OF UTILITIES THEY USE AT A MORE OR L ESS REGULAR BASIS, AND US 128 USERS ARE NO EXCEPTION. THIS INCLUDES DISK COPIER S, DISK SECTOR EDITORS, SPRITE DESIGNERS ETC. BUT I MYSELF THINK IT'S VERY ANNO YING WHEN SOME RUN IN 128 MODE, AND OTHE RS RUN IN 64 MODE. BUT WITH 128 DISK ME NU YOU CAN KEEP THEM ALL ON ONE DISK, AN D YOUR COMPUTER WILL SELECT MODE FOR YOU ! YOU CAN EVEN FURTHER AUTOMATE THE SEL ECTION BY MAKING THE DISK MENU AUTOBOOTI NG..
