With many of the best reference books now out of print,
this disk based reference guide is more than welcome. A superb tutorial
that may be printed out with a word processor or read direct from the
disk with the viewer program supplied. The guide covers the whole
spectrum of Atari programming including The Central Input/Output
Utility, The Disk Operating System, Using DOS 2, The Cassette Handler,
The Keyboard Handler, Printer Handler, Screen Editor, The Display
Handler, The Resident Disk Handler, System Interrupts, The Floating
Point Arithmetic Package, Boot Software Formats, The Serial Input/Output
Interface, The Hardware Chips, Display Lists, Player Missile graphics,
Sound, The Joystick Ports and more. As you will see from the subject
matter the guide is aimed at the more advanced user but it contains
material that will be useful to anyone who wants to program the Atari
effectively. A very comprehensive coverage of the machine with much
information that is now difficult to obtain elsewhere.
