- To install another MIDI interface, change the routines in MBM.ASM. There
- will probably be a few gotcha's in MB.ASM, but it should not be too bad.
- You may also have to make some changes in the Alpha module in MBA.ASM.
-
- To add a module, start with a similar module as a template:
-
- 1. Write the module code in MBA.ASM or MBB.ASM.
-
- 2. Write the module graphics table in the _MODTXT table of MBV.
-
- 3. Enter _MODSRC table for the module in MBV.
-
- 4. Add the module name to EXTRN.ASM.
-
- 5. Replace @dummy with @module-name in _CHRTBL in MBV.
-
- 6. Place the module label (the top 3 characters of the module graphics)
- in the appropriate area in PAGE0.SCR and/or TUTOR.SCR. These files
- are a memory image of the color monitor display RAM. The label can
- be placed anywhere in any of the boxes, as the program finds the
- locations when it is started up.
-
- 7. You can effectively delete previously existing modules by simply
- leaving them out of PAGE0.SCR. Also, you can rearrange the modules
- in any way you see fit.
-
- 8. Change the version amd/or release number in EQUATES.ASM to prevent
- old, incompatable versions from loading. Unfortunately, ANY change
- to the size of MB.EXE will cause it to be incompatable with earlier
- version SAVE files.
-
- 9. If you want to call on me for help, use CIS email. Please do not
- attempt to call me at Time Arts. If you come up with a nice module
- or two, please let me know about it.
