I could drive my RC2014 from my TRS-80 4P (using the Remote Shell
coming in the next commit)! A challenge I faced was that the RC2014
spits characters too fast and the CTS line of its ACIA modules
(both the 6850 and SIO/2 ones) are hard-wired to ground, making
flow control difficult. I solved this, for now, by lowering comm
speed.
This driver improvement makes CL<? faster and makes baud rate
configurable in CL$.
Recipes contain bits and pieces of hardware-related knowledge, but
these bits feel sparse. I've been wanting to consolidate hardware-
related documentation for a while, but always fell at odds with the
recipes organisation.
We don't have recipes anymore, just a /doc/hw section that contains
hardware-related documentation which often translate to precise
instructions to run Collapse OS on a specific machine.
With this new organisation, I hope to end up with a better, more
solid documentation.
