Or just a recording to be watched later.

I wonder if it would make sense to provide a few "built-in" sets of fonts that the user could select, like some variants of the PETSCII, or fonts inspired from various other systems :) Would certainly make sense if somebody artistically better than me can do good 8 to 6 bit width conversi...

Documentation added as readme.md in the Github or as file to download at:
https://github.com/xahmol/OricScreenEdi ... README.pdf

No time now for a separate release post in an own topic, will probably be tomorrow.

Update with new version incorporating suggestions from Iss: - turn off keyboard clicks (or set short key to switch it off/on); Done. Keyboard click sounds should now be gone (they are at least here in Oricutron) - make selection tool to work not only from top-left to right-down; Done. Proved to be v...

Folks - thanks for the guidance and feedback. Out of interest, does it work on any other computers. As well as the Orics, I have an Enterprise and a Tatung Einstein requiring some love. Cheers Steve Well, the disk controller in the Cumana Reborn has the Oric Atmos ROM, so it would not work on other...

Congrats! Cool program and can be useful! My 2 cents: - turn off keyboard clicks (or set short key to switch it off/on); - make selection tool to work not only from top-left to right-down; - nice to have IJK-joystick :) btw, github contains BAT files for OSDK but they are not for OSE. Do you use cc...

Ah, sorry then. I am not sure why I thought that it was included at some point. Maybe it was in the original HxC firmware.

Now you make me doubt as I actually did non Oric projects last months so actually didn’t try for a year. Did I miss a firmware? Will check.

Thank. Did found that out before in this topic, but forgot to delete this code as I now not use it yet as I still need SEDORiC.

And I do agree that someone should write that missing manual of the Cumana Reborn, just not sure if I have the energy to do so myself.
The device is great, but support from it’s manufactor is rather sparse, also because of language issues.

On that converting back to DSK issues, see this thread: https://forum.defence-force.org/viewtop ... 325#p25325
And just remembered again the issue is only in Oricutron reading the HFE back, not Eupohoric. Actually did not check if this has been solved meanwhile in Oricutron, will try soon.

No, the Cumana Reborn does not use DSK natively alas. You have to convert DSK to HFE using this software: https://hxc2001.com/download/floppy_drive_emulator/HxCFloppyEmulator_soft.zip (https://hxc2001.com/download/floppy_drive_emulator/) As far as I know that is not only the best way to do it, but a...

Would be really cool to use it to write code too, though. Got space left for scrolling and word operations? No space left alas unless I work the alternative disk operations out and regain the overlay RAM by ditching SEDORIC. Had already to decease my windows buffer somewhat to make room. Source cod...

By the way: to manage expectation about what my tool can do: had to do preprocessing for my tool to load this. Actually used Oric Explorer on the .tap to view the different files and see where the screen and charset were located. Oric Explorer has a very convenient text and charset viewer included. ...

Palette view with charsets redefined: A redefined character in the char editor: Workdisk with the files: LORIPJ.BIN is project meta data
LORISC.BIN is the screen
LORICA.BIN is the alternate charset

Succeeded. That intro screen uses the alternate charset for the Loriciels logo. See screenshots of it loaded in Oric Screen Editor: Screen loaded without charset data: Schermafbeelding 2022-06-13 122613.png Same screen with alternate charset serial modifier changed to standard charset (to see which ...
