Re: A86: Winlib.


i don't think Rascall supports libraries, but if it does, yes put
winlib.85s in the 85-var space. i THINK what happens with 85-var space
is that variables are loaded into RAM after Rascall ends and then
entries are added to the VAT that point to them, and also it puts an
entry starting at $FA6F down. This would allow TI-85 programs to use the
standard RST 10h command as well as step through the VAT. However, I
don't think (the current version of) Rascall employs the RST 10h method,
it just allows programs to step through the VAT.
