agon-projects

Multiple projects for the Agon light. Click through to each project for more detailed instructions. Release versions are in the respective Release directories under each project. If you're interested in C programming, check out my matching AgDev C repo.

2048

2048.bin is a port of the popular game 2048, including source. Copy 2048.bin into your /mos (or bin) directory and enjoy!

ANSIplay

ansiplay.bin is a mos tool that plays .ANS format ANSI text files, including displaying any available metadata. Copy ansiplay.bin into your /mos directory and enjoy!

bootlogo

bootlogo.bin is a mos tool that shows the Agon Light logo along with the current screen capabilties. Copy bootlogo.bin into your /mos then add bootlogo to the end of your autoexec.txt and enjoy!

calc24

calc24.bin is a mos tool that is intended to provide both a simple 24 bit integer calculator in hex and decimal, working both as a command line or interactive tool. The integer routines may also be useful for other projects. Copy calc24.bin into your /mos directory ready to use.

charIO-hex

charioh.bin is a mos tool to demonstrate terminal mode, and display the keyboard codes to screen in hex. It should make an easy template to understand terminal mode. Copy charioh.bin into your /mos directory and enjoy!

fonttest

fonttest.bas is a tool to demonstrate the creation of reverse text and underlines text fonts, using more recent Agon/Console8 VDP features for manipulating fonts in buffers. Minimum version of VDP is 2.8.1. The code is heavily commented and written in BBC BASIC.

gunzip

gunzip.bin allows you to uncompress gzip compressed files natively on Agon MOS. Note that this utility can NOT run as a MOSlet. Copy gunzip.bin into your / directory and use the load and run commands to execute. Documentation is included when you run without parameters.

hexdump

hexdump.bin is a mos tool to dump the hex and printable contents of a file for visual examination, allowing easy navigation through the file. Copy hexdump.bin into your /mos directory and enjoy!

hexdumpm

hexdumpm.bin is a mos tool to dump the hex and printable contents of memory for visual examination, allowing easy navigation through memory. Copy hexdumpm.bin into your /mos directory and enjoy!

memsave

memsave.bin is a general tool to dump memory to a file. Note that this utility is built to run at 0x0B0000, so it will need to be run from the mos directory and will overwrite that address. Copy memsave.bin into your /mos directory and enjoy!

OSboot

OSboot.bin tool to boot up TRS-OS which in turn opens the door to run well-behaved TRS-80 Model 4 software natively on the Agon. This needs to run from the /mos directory. Only a binary is available at the moment. Source may be released in future. There are additional parameters which are explaned when you click through, including selecting colour and an optional disk image. The memory map also allows for import and export of files via this loading method.

OSbootZ

OSbootZ.bin tool to boot up Zeal-OS, also runs from the /mos directory. Only a binary is available at the moment. Source may be released in future. The second optional parameter loads a 64k ZealFS image into memory at 0x090000, which can be saved again upon reboot using memsave. This means you can import and export files into ZealOS.

strings

strings.bin is a minimal implementation of the *nix strings utility, allowing the user to search through a binary file for strings of a minimum length (specified in the command line). It demonstrates the use of the MOScalls mos_fgetc and mos_feof. The binary is included in the strings/Release directory. Copy strings.bin into your /mos directory and enjoy!

TRSCOLR

TRSCLOR/CMD is a utility to change text colour from the command line under TRS-OS on the Agon Light computer.

unzip

unzip.bin allows you to uncompress zip compressed file libraries natively on Agon MOS. Note that this utility can NOT run as a MOSlet. Copy unzip.bin into your / directory and use the load and run commands to execute. Documentation is included when you run without parameters.
