It has been a VERY long time since I have done any assembly language programming on the CoCo. My last serious project was in 1993 or 1994 - It was an Assembly Language Program that allowed Color Computer users to save their graphics designs in ".MGE" format. It wasn't a very difficult program to create as that particular format was simply a Run Length Encoded type (RLE - not very efficient - it can actually increase the size of a file). Then, after a few years of absence from the CoCo (1998),  I received a letter from Harold J. Moenich, expressing a need for a simple program to allow his Speech-Sound Pak to speak Telewriter 128 files. I pulled out the old CoCo equipment and hashed together a quick assembly language program that linked into the PRINTER RAM-HOOK and thus, allowed all text destined for the printer to be spoken via the Speech/Sound Cartridge. Most all of my previous work including the above programs have long since vanished along with all of my CoCo equipment. I think it was all abducted by aliens, but Mulder wouldn't investigate. Regardless of what actually happened to all of my stuff, I have recently, via  eBay , re-acquired much of the CoCo stuff that I once owned. It is my desire to recreate, not only the above programs, but some entirely new software as well. As such, I will have to RE-LEARN THE 6809! The above being the case, I thought I would allow the rest of the CoCo Community to join me in this journey. You will witness my mistakes, triumphs and general stupidity! Care to join me?
