Re: A82: 82 standards




so i was right... in a strange way...  anyway... to suggest a new
standard, let's go with this...

D9 or D5 as the first byte... it really doesn't matter.
00 to terminate the ti basic program
30/11/20/40 the version # of a shell (crash 1.1,2.0 -- ash 3.0/4.0)

IF THE FILE IS NOT A PROGRAM... make the verison # equal to 00.
the next byte, if a program, would be the start of the description... if
it's not a program, like a level file, then replace the byte after the
D900xx to a identification byte for games to realize that it is a level
meant for it.

just my thought, of course...
