# 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 - address $2000-$257F, length $0580, file offset $000000 (Loader)
|
|
* segment 1: aux1 - address $4000-$BFFF, length $8000, file offset $000580 (A2D, part of DeskTop)
|
|
* segment 2: aux2 - address $D000-$ECFF, length $1D00, file offset $008580 (More of DeskTop)
|
|
* segment 3: aux3 - address $FB00-$FFFF, length $0500, file offset $00A280 (More of DeskTop)
|
|
* segment 4: main - address $4000-$BEFF, length $7F00, file offset $00A780 (More of DeskTop)
|
|
* segment 5: main - address $0800-$0FFF, length $0800, file offset $012680 (Initializer)
|
|
* segment 6: main - address $0290-$03EF, length $0160, file offset $012E80 (Invoker)
|
|
* segment N: _TBD_ - 38k so must be further subdivided. Disk Copy, and ...???
|
|
|
|
## 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+CA+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
|
|
|
|
`desktop.s`
|
|
|
|
Loaded at $800-$FFF, this does one-time initialization of the
|
|
DeskTop. It is later overwritten when any desk accessories are
|
|
run.
|
|
|
|
### GUI Library "A2D"
|
|
|
|
`a2d.s`
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
|
|
* Part of $8500-$87FF looks like part of "DeskTop" (see below), dealing with online volumes.
|
|
|
|
### "DeskTop" Application
|
|
|
|
`desktop.s`
|
|
|
|
DeskTop application code is in the lower 48k of both Aux and Main:
|
|
|
|
* Aux $8E00-$BFFF - sitting above the GUI library
|
|
* Main $4000-$BEFF
|
|
|
|
...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
|
|
* Aux $FB00-$FFFF - more resources (file types, icons)
|
|
|
|
($C000-$CFFF is reserved for I/O, and main $BF page and language card is ProDOS)
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
