The MultiJoy is an adapter to connect 8 or 16 Joysticks to a ATARI 8Bit (600XL, 800XL, 130XE, ...). The MultiJoy was designed by Radek Sterba (RASTER). You can find detail Information on thi adapter on [http://www.infos.cz/raster/atari/hw/multijoy.htm]

Query the Joystick:
{{{

PL=6
DO PL==-1 UNTIL PL=0 OD ; wait a wee bit so the PIA can adjust to the new value
TRI^=TRIG0 ; now read the trigger
STI^=(PORTA&$0F) ; and read the joystick, and blank out the high nibble by ANDing %00001111=$0F
RETURN
call the procedure with:

T=@TRI ; and T to TRI
DO ; main loop
FOR PL=0 to 8 DO

RETURN
