# DeskTop diassembly notes - DESKTOP2.$F1
This is large - 111k. It includes a loader and the DeskTop app with
both main memory and aux memory segments, filling everything from
$4000 to $FFFF (except for I/O space and ProDOS), and still having
more code segments swapped in dynamically.
The file is broken down into multiple segments:
| Purpose | File Offset | Bank | Address | Length | Sources |

(EOF is $01BCE0)
The DeskTop segments loaded into the Aux bank switched ("language
card") memory can be used from both main and aux, so contain relay
routines, resources, and buffers. More details below.
## Structure
### Loader
`loader.s`
Invoked at $2000; patches the ProDOS QUIT routine (at LC2 $D100) then
invokes it. That gets copied to $1000-$11FF and run by ProDOS.
The invoked code stashes the current prefix and re-patches ProDOS with
itself. It then (in a convoluted way) loads in the second $200 bytes of
`DESKTOP2` at $2000 and invokes that.
This code then loads the rest of the file as a sequence of segments,
moving them to the appropriate destination in aux/banked/main memory.
There's fourth chunk of code, which expects to live at $280 so it
can't co-exist with the Invoker; it may be temporary code, as there is
no sign that it is ever moved into place. It's also unclear how it
would be hooked in. The routine detects OA+SA+P and prints the DHR
screen to an ImageWriter II printer attached to Slot 1. (This may have
been used to produce screenshots during development for manuals.)
### Invoker
`invoker.s`
Loaded at $290-$03EF, this small routine is used to invoke a target,
e.g. a double-clicked file. System files are loaded/run at $2000,
binary files at the location specified by their aux type, and BASIC
files loaded by searching for BASIC.SYSTEM and running it with the
pathname passed at $2006 (see ProDOS TLM).
### Initializer
(in `desktop_main.s`)
Loaded at $800-$FFF, this does one-time initialization of the
DeskTop. It is later overwritten when any desk accessories are
run.
### MouseGraphics ToolKit (MGTK)
`mgtk.s`
Aux $4000-$851E is the [MouseGraphics ToolKit](../MGTK.md) - a
GUI library used for the DeskTop application.
Since this resides in Aux memory, DeskTop spends most of its time
with Aux read/write enabled. The state and logic for rendering
the desktop and window contents resides in Aux to avoid proxying
data.
### "DeskTop" Application
`desktop.s` which includes in:
* `desktop_aux.s`
* `desktop_lc.s` (which pulls in `desktop_res.s`)
* `desktop_main.s`
DeskTop application code is in the lower 48k of both Aux and Main:
* Aux $851F-$BFFF - sitting above the GUI library (`desktop_aux.s`)
* Main $4000-$BEFF (`desktop_main.s`)
...and in the Aux language card area (accessible from both aux and
main code) are relays, buffers and resources:
* Aux $D000-$ECFF - relays and other aux/main helpers, resources (menus, strings, window)
* Aux $ED00-$FAFF - hole for data buffer - entries for each icon on desktop/in windows
* Aux $FB00-$FFFF - more resources (file types, icons)
($C000-$CFFF is reserved for I/O, and main $BF page and language card is ProDOS)
`desktop_res.s` defines these common resources. It is built as part of
`desktop.s`. Early in the build process it is also built as part of
`desktop_res_build.s` which is processed to produce `out/desktop_res.inc`,
which is used by the overlay sources.
Aux $1B00-$1F7F holds lists of icons, one for the desktop then one for up
to 8 windows. First byte is a count, up to 127 icon entries. Icon numbers
map indirectly into a table at $ED00 that holds the type, coordinates, etc.
Aux $1F80-$1FFF is a map of used/free icon numbers, as they are reassigned
as windows are opened and closed.
### Overlays
`ovl1.s` etc
Interactive commands including disk copy/format/erase, file
copy/delete, and Selector add/edit/delete/run all dynamically load
main memory code overlays. When complete, any original code above
$4000 is reloaded (unless a full restart is required.)
Several of the overlays also use a common file selector dialog overlay
`ovl4.s` ($5000-$6FFF).
#### Disk Copy Overlay
The Disk Copy command replaces large chunks of memory and is best
thought of as a separate application.
The first part (`ovl1.s`, $800-$9FF) loads into main memory the other
overlays, but in turn it loads a second short ($200-byte) overlay
(`ovl1a.s`, $1800-$19FF). This then loads a replacement for the
resources in the aux language card area (`ovl1b.s`, Aux LC
$D000-$F1FF) and another block of code in main memory (`ovl1c.s`, Main
$0800-$12FF). When exiting, the DeskTop is restarted from the
beginning.
#### Disk Format/Disk Erase
Simple overlay: `ovl2.s`, loaded into Main A$0800-$1BFF.
#### Selector - Delete Entry / Run Entry
Simple overlay: `ovl3.s` ($9000-$9FFF).
#### Selector - Add Entry / Edit Entry
Also uses `ovl3.s` ($9000-$9FFF) but additionally uses overlay
`ovl7.s` ($7000-$77FF) and the file selector dialog `ovl4.s`
($5000-$6FFF).
#### File Copy
Overlay `ovl5.s` ($7000-$77FF), uses file selector dialog `ovl4.s`
($5000-$6FFF).
#### File Delete
Overlay `ovl6.s` ($7000-$77FF), uses file selector dialog `ovl4.s`
($5000-$6FFF).
