EACA Colour Genie EG2000

The EG2000 was a TRS80 relative, with a different video card. The monochrome library permits fast drawing working on a single color (RED). Single bit and PSG sound libraries are supported.

Console disk programs (.CMD files) should be fairly portable between the EG2000 and the TRS80.

Quick Start

The following command will build a .CMD system file, ready for almost all the existing emulators:

zcc  +trs80 -lndos -lm -create-app -subtype=eg2000disk program.c

This can then be loaded into Genieous using the File->Autostart File menu option and selecting the produced .cmd file.

Generic console support

The generic console allows supporting either a custom font (-pragma-redirect:CRT_FONT=...) and 32 UDGs, or 128 UDGs. These udgs can be set programmatically using the appropriate ioctl.

You should switch to mode 1 to enable use of the custom font and more than 32 UDGs.
