Subject: [stella] The FAQ From: "Mark Graybill" <saundby@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 10 Oct 2002 15:28:45 -0700 |
I've started on fleshing out the FAQ a bit. I'll probably post what I've
got so far within the next couple of hours for comment and general derision.

I've been filling out the introductory, background info parts of the
FAQ so far, and fleshing out the outline of the document overall. I'll probably
start putting in actual coding information pretty soon. I expect those parts to
be just rough cut-and-pastes from past posts at first, and if time allows we can
go back and smooth things out later.
I'm not planning on including a full tutorial in the FAQ myself, I'd rather
point at the work that's already been done with a URL. I'm trying to be fairly
comprehensive on what the bits are that are required to make a basic program
work.
Oh, I've also got a sort of 2600 _and_ 7800 slant to the thing. I haven't
done any 7800 software stuff myself, I've only done hardware work with it so
far, but I wanted to make places to put the info. I'm planning on going on to
program the 7800 once I've decided I've had enough fun with the 2600,
myself.
Anyway, one area where I want a bit of guidance is on websites. I could
probably overwhelm myself with trying to get every URL in that rightfully
belongs there, but I have other plans for what I'd like to contribute to the
FAQ. So far I've put in a comment about the FAQ not trying to be comprehensive
about websites and other internet resources, and divvied the sites up into three
fairly basic categories (2600/7800 programming, 2600/7800 tech, general
tech-6502, etc.) Each category has a few representative sites so far.
So, what I'd like is if folks could post websites that the FAQ couldn't
_possibly_ be complete without, along with a brief description so that I can do
a quick cut and paste into the FAQ. I'll try to filter repeats. Here's a sample
of the sort of format I'd like (I'm not planning to include this particular
site, I'm just using it as a format sample):
Saundby's Atari 7800 Mods, a page of hardware mods including video and
power mods:
