[DSP-10] ver380

[Luis Cupido]

If you all report it to be working fine it got to be
me with something very stupid happening here. My hardware
ia a very traditional P1 board that I never had any
issue of incompatibility with whatever application as
far as I remember.

I have the bench in a mess with another work and isn't
really practical to get the DSP10 there and play.
As soon as I get more space/time I'll try to figure out a
bit more. I wouldn't be too surprised if it is a corrupted
file somehow.

You are sure that by getting the file from your web site
all works fine, right ?


 >F1... How many, if any, do you see?
Shows first help screen and stays there forever !!!

Wonder if it executes an HCF instruction ;-)
P1 != Motorola ;-)
Maybe nowadays all have that after all hi ;-)

ct1dmk.

p.s. for those who don't know this fantastic
piece of computer history go Wikipedia on HCF (HCF-halt and catch fire)
instruction.
