INTRODUCTION

The problem history with managing sources for 4 people while using an assembler with a very limited symbol table size is not amusing. Let it suffice that we did what was neccessary at the time.

Our tools have progressed since Sinistar days, but the library will have to reflect the state of those days in the way it builds a working version of Sinistar for you. So it is that the subdirectories for the main programmers contain their last development version of Sinistar.

FILE ORGANIZATION

Assembly order of overlays:

[.SAM] Contains all the V17 files from Sam Dicker [.WITT] Contains all the V17 files from Rich Witt [.FALS] Contains all the V17 files from Noah Falstein [.MICA] Contains all the V17 files from Bob Mical [.COM] Contains a mangerie of related comand files from them all.

At the top level, [LIBRARY.SINISTAR] you will find these main files:

READ.ME You're reading it now. A preliminary description of things. MAKE.COM A command file that can rebuild Sinistar.
