* [MAC/65 from ICD 1988 from Alfred from AtariAge|Mac65.zip] ; still under investigation, Giga-thanks to Alfred from AtariAge, we miss you!
\\
The disks "mac-xl-1.atr" and "mac-xl-2.atr" contain a version of MAC/65 that presents itself as "Assembler version 3.4" with date "12/21/87". To build it, one has to change RAM to 0 and EPROM to 1 in D:MASTER (lines 190-200) and then assemble from RAM to disk. To build a M091 version, additionally change BANK2 to $D509 and BANK3 to $D501 in D:EQUATE.INC (lines 180-190).\\
\\
The resulting binary of "Assembler 3.4" differs from the MAC XL 3.4i binary only in the copyright text. By changing it one is able to build the MAC XL 3.4i binary that is identical to the one found earlier. Specifically, one has to change the lines 40-70 of D:COPY:\\
\\
40 MES   .BYTE $7D,"MAC XE",TAB,TAB\\
50       .CBYTE "Version 3.4i"\\
60 MES1  .BYTE "(c) 1985 Stephen D. Lawrow"\\
70       .CBYTE "   2/11/86 ",TAB\\
\\
After these changes, it is possible to build the M091 version of MAC XE 3.4i that matches the existing 043M version.\\
\\
The disks "mac-xl-master-icd.atr" and "mac-xl-slave-icd.atr" contain a version that presents itself as MAC/65 1.01, but it is different than the commercially released v1.01. Apparently someone made improvements in this version. Comments in the source files indicate that it was last changed in 1986. To build this version, we start with the file D2:NEWMAIN (there is no D:MASTER on this disk set). Change RAM to 0 and EPROM to 1 in D2:NEWMAIN (lines 190-200) and then assemble from RAM to disk. To build an M091 version, additionally change BANK2 to $D509 and BANK3 to $D501 in D:EQUATE.INC (lines 180-190).\\

Thank you so much Tomasz 'Kr0tki' Krasuski for the info in building the runtimes, we owe you so much, can't tell you enough. :-)))\\
Please go ahead and stay healthy, the Atari community needs you desperately.
