DeskTop diassembly notes
DESKTOP.SYSTEM
A short (8k) loader program. This is likely responsible for copying the rest to a RAM card (if available), then invoking the main app.
DESKTOP2.$F1
This is large - 111k. It includes a loader, 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 - probably the disk copy code which is swapped in dynamically.
The file is broken down into multiple segments:
- segment 0: load - offset $0000, length $0580, loaded at $2000
- segment 1: aux1 - offset $0580, length $8000, loaded at $4000 (through $BFFF)
- segment 2: aux2 - offset $8580, length $1D00, loaded at $D000 (through $ECFF)
- segment 3: aux2 - offset $A280, length $0500, loaded at $FB00 (through $FFFF)
- segment 4: main - offset $A780, length $7F00, loaded at $4000 (through $BEFF)
- main $BF00-$BFFF is ProDOS buffers
- main $C000-$CFFF is I/O space
- main $D000-$FFFF is ProDOS
- segment 5: TBD - 38k so must be further subdivided. Disk Copy???
Structure
GUI Library "A2D"
AUX $4000-$8DFF is the GUI library used for the DeskTop application and (presumably) for disk copy and Selector apps (TBD).
Entry point is $4000 with a ProDOS MLI-style calling convention
- Font is at $8800
"DeskTop" Application
AUX $8E00-$FFFF (with hole at $C000-$CFFF for I/O and at $ED00-$FAFF for data buffer) is the DeskTop application itself, with desktop and file icons, menus, dialogs, and so on.
