lib	- Moved PFS header from Apple2 directory to 6502 directory as we're going to have other PFS implementations.	2010-03-27 14:46:08 +00:00

contiki-conf.h	Configure maximum number of Apple2 web server connections indirectly via maximum number of TCP connections.	2010-04-11 21:23:45 +00:00
contiki-main.c	Removed closing of stdin, stdout (and stderr on the Apple2). It was introduced in order to maximize the number of available file handles for the webserver. However none of the target machine DOSes allows to open a single file several times diminishing the intended effect very much. One the other hand not being able to "just printf() something" causes trouble over and again - i.e. hello-world seemingly not working...after all a typical case of german over-enigneering ;-)	2010-02-10 07:43:25 +00:00

README

README

The platform/apple2enh/ directory is used for targeting an Enhanced Apple //e
(or compatible) computer. Most things are shared between the 6502-based targets
so please consult cpu/6502/README for further details.


The following Apple II Ethernet cards are supported:

- Uther:   Use driver cs8900a.eth  with the address $C0x0 (x = 8 + slot number).
- LANceGS: Use driver lan91c96.eth with the address $C0x0 (x = 8 + slot number).


In most cases it is desirable to use an emulator for the development and testing
of a Contiki application. AppleWin is especially well suited as it emulates the
Uther Ethernet card in slot 3. It is available at http://applewin.berlios.de/.


The 'disk' make goal requires AppleCommander 1.3.5 or later. It is available at
http://applecommander.sourceforge.net/.


The apple2enh target supports a PFS that requires much less RAM than the POSIX
file system. However this benefit comes with the following restrictions:

- Only one file may be open at the same time.
- Only read operations are supported but no write operations.
- The files must be located in the same directory the application is located in
  (the ProDOS prefix may very well point to another directory).
- The network MTU size must be set at least to 1265 (the default is 1500).
- No network function may be called while a file is open.
