ADDENDA to Glossary for | ||
8080 fig-FORTH Release 1.1 | ||
|
||
|
||
#BUF --- n | ||
A constant returning the number of disk buffers allocated. For | ||
the disk I-O routines to work correctly #BUF must be greater than 1. | ||
|
||
.CPU | ||
Prints the processor name (i.e.8080) from ORIG+22H encoded as a | ||
32 bit, base 36 integer. | ||
|
||
2! nlow nhigh addr --- | ||
32 bit store. nhigh is stored at addr; nlow is stored at addr+2. | ||
|
||
2@ addr --- nlow nhigh | ||
32 bit fetch. nhigh is fetched from addr; nlow is fetched from | ||
addr+2. | ||
|
||
2DUP n2 n1 --- n2 n1 n2 n1 | ||
Duplicates the top two values on the stack. Equivalent to OVER OVER. | ||
|
||
C/L --- n | ||
Constant leaving the number of characters per line; used by the | ||
editor. | ||
|
||
DENSITY --- addr | ||
A variable used by the disk interface. | ||
0 = single density; 1 = double density. | ||
|
||
DISK-ERROR --- addr | ||
A variable used by the disk interface, containing the disk status | ||
for the last sector read or written. 0 means no error. | ||
|
||
DRIVE --- addr | ||
A variable used by disk interface, containing the disk drive | ||
number (0 to MXDRV) used on the last sector read or written. | ||
|
||
FLUSH | ||
Write all UPDATEd disk buffers to disk. Should be used after | ||
editing, before dismounting a disk, or before exiting FORTH. | ||
|
||
NOOP | ||
A Forth ‘no operation’. | ||
|
||
P! b port# --- | ||
8080 or Z-80 I-0 port store. Outputs byte b to port#. | ||
|
||
P@ port# --- b | ||
8080 or Z-80 I-O port fetch. Inputs byte b from port#. | ||
|
||
RP@ --- addr | ||
Leaves the current value in the return stack pointer register. | ||
|
||
SEC --- addr | ||
A variable used by the disk interface, containing the sector number | ||
last read or written relative to the last drive used. | ||

||
SEC-READ | ||
Reads a disc sector (BPS bytes) into memory. All parameters must | ||
have been set by SET-DRIVE and SET-I0. The status on completion | ||
is stored in DISK-ERROR. | ||
|
||
SEC-WRITE | ||
Writes a disk-sector (BPS bytes) from memory. All parameters must | ||
have been set by SET-DRIVE and SET-I0. The status on completion | ||
is stored in DISK-ERROR. | ||
|
||
SET-DRIVE | ||
A CP/M service call which makes subsequent disk reads and writes use | ||
|
||
the drive designated in DRIVE. T&SCALC is usually used to set | ||
DRIVE and call SET-DRIVE. 0 = first drive to MXDRV | ||
|
||
SET-I0 | ||
A CP/M service call which makes subsequent disc reads and writes | ||
use the drive last set by SET-DRIVE, the memory address in variable | ||
USE, the sector number in SEC, and the track number in TRACK. | ||
T&SCALC is usually used to set these variables. | ||
|
||
T&SCALC n --- | ||
Track & Sector and drive calculation for disk I0. n is the | ||
total sector dispacement from the first logical drive to the | ||
desired sector. | ||
n = (block# + OFFSET) * SEC/BLK | ||
The corresponding drive, track, and sector numbers are calculated. | ||
If the drive number is different from the contents of DRIVE, the new | ||
drive number is stored in DRIVE and SET-DRIVE is executed. | ||
|
||
The track number is stored in TRACK; the sector number is stored | ||
in SEC. T&SCALC is usually executed before SET-DRIVE. | ||
|
||
TRACK --- addr | ||
A variable used by disk I-O. Contains the track number last | ||
read or written relative to the current drive. | ||
|
||
U< u1 u2 --- f | ||
Leave the boolean value of an unsigned less-than comparison. Leaves | ||
f = 1 for ul < u2; otherwise leaves 0. This function must be | ||
used when comparing memory addresses. u1 and u2 are unsigned | ||
16 bit integers. | ||
