I would like to have network support on the MEGA65 in basic, too.
However the ROM is limited in size, and network stuff takes an awful lot of space.
When using network capabilities, it takes as well some amount for buffering from the enhanced graphic capabilities. There is a cross platform C network source for compiling into assembler, and I would think with lots of DATA statements and poking it might eventually be possible, too.
So to my knowledge, there are no embedded network commands in basic. You can read more details about the network stuff in the extended MEGA65 manual. More precise: https://files.mega65.org/manuals-upload/mega65-book.pdf
…starting from page 863
Anyone creating a nice network plugin on the MEGA65 for having easy access in basic, please let me know. It would surely be nice to run a terminal program, bbs, network game, even transferring simple chess moves, etc.
Just received feedback that the tcp/ip network stack occupies more space than the entire ROM.
Therefore even a simple telnet command would require storage in either the VHDL area, or like e.g. on the C64 simons basic ‚extension’ module, or worst case lots of RAM.
I favour a ‚Network Stack Extension‘ module for plug-in. Anyone going to create one?
The Mega65 will come with a program called ‚fetch‘ for FTP (to my knowledge) and Paul created a SW called ‚haustierbegriff‘, to connect to BBS.
