|
; On 2K (800h) boundaries beginning at address C0000h and ending at EF800h
|
|
; there is a header that describes a block of rom program. This header
|
|
; contains information needed to initialize a module and to provide PCDOS
|
|
; with a set of reserved names for execution.
|
|
;
|
|
; This header has the following format:
|
|
;
|
|
; rom_header STRUC
|
|
; Signature1 DB 55h
|
|
; Signature2 DB AAh
|
|
; rom_length DB ? ; number of 512 byte pieces
|
|
; init_jmp DB 3 dup (?)
|
|
; name_list name_struc <>
|
|
; rom_header ENDS
|
|
;
|
|
; name_struc STRUC
|
|
; name_len DB ?
|
|
; name_text DB ? DUP (?)
|
|
; name_jmp DB 3 DUP (?)
|
|
; name_struc ENDS
|
|
;
|
|
; The name list is a list of names that are reserved by a particular section
|
|
; of a module. This list of names is terminated by a null name (length
|
|
; is zero).
|
|
;
|
|
; Consider now, the PCDOS action when a user enters a command:
|
|
;
|
|
; COMMAND.COM has control.
|
|
; o If location FFFFEh has FDh then
|
|
; o Start scanning at C0000h, every 800h for a byte 55h followed
|
|
; by AAh, stop scan if we get above or = F0000H
|
|
; o When we've found one, compare the name entered by the user
|
|
; with the one found in the rom. If we have a match, then
|
|
; set up the environment for execution and do a long jump
|
|
; to the near jump after the found name.
|
|
; o If no more names in the list, then continue scanning the module
|
|
; for more 55h followed by AAh.
|
|
; o We get to this point only if there is no matching name in the
|
|
; rom. We now look on disk for the command.
|
|
;
|
|
; This gives us the flexibility to execute any rom cartridge without having
|
|
; to 'hard-code' the name of the cartridge into PCDOS. Rom modules that
|
|
; want to be invisible to the DOS should not have any names in their lists
|
|
; (i.e. they have a single null name).
|
|
;
|
|
; Consider a new release of BASIC, say, that patches bugs in the ROM version.
|
|
; Clearly this version will be available on disk. How does a user actually
|
|
; invoke this new BASIC?? He cannot call it BASIC on the disk because the
|
|
; EXEC loader will execute the ROM before it even looks at the disk! Only
|
|
; solution:
|
|
;
|
|
; o Keep things consistent and force the user to have his software named
|
|
; differently from the ROM names (BASIC1, BASIC2, etc).
