Mirror of CollapseOS
UnsetZ has been reduced by a byte, and between 17 and 28 cycles saved based on branching. Since branching is based on a being 0, it shouldn't have to branch very often and so be 28 cycles saved most the time. Including the initial call, the old version was 60 cycles, so this should be nearly twice as fast. fmtHex has been reduced by 4 bytes and between 3 and 8 cycles based on branching. fmtHexPair had a redundant "and" removed, saving two bytes and seven cycles. parseHex has been reduced by 7 bytes. Due to so much branching, it's hard to say if it's faster, but it should be since it's fewer operations and now conditional returns are used which are a cycle faster than conditional jumps. I think there's more to improve here, but I haven't come up with anything yet. |

Collapse OS
Bootstrap post-collapse technology
Collapse OS is a z80 kernel and a collection of programs, tools and documentation that allows you to assemble an OS that, when completed, will be able to:
- Run on minimal and improvised machines.
- Interface through improvised means (serial, keyboard, display).
- Edit text files.
- Compile assembler source files for a wide range of MCUs and CPUs.
- Read and write from a wide range of storage devices.
- Replicate itself.
Additionally, the goal of this project is to be as self-contained as possible. With a copy of this project, a capable and creative person should be able to manage to build and install Collapse OS without external resources (i.e. internet) on a machine of her design, built from scavenged parts with low-tech tools.
Organisation of this repository
kernel
: Pieces of code to be assembled by the user into a kernel.apps
: Pieces of code to be assembled into "userspace" application.recipes
: collection of recipes that assemble parts together on a specific machine.doc
: User guide for when you've successfully installed Collapse OS.tools
: Tools for working with Collapse OS from "modern" environments. Mostly development tools, but also contains emulated zasm, which is necessary to build Collapse OS from a non-Collapse OS machine.
Each folder has a README with more details.
Status
The project unfinished but is progressing well! See Collapse OS' website for more information.
