Good morning,
Could you add full Warpspeed cartridge support ?
It was very thin even for the disk editor.

Thank you
We attach everything we have about it.

regards

Into internet about Warpspeed I have found:

_If you do a "/" load on a V2.0 cart, you get:
"WARP LOADING $0800 $0801 $0B40"_

What is this mean ?

"/" seems to be a shortcut for

LOAD "*",8,1

This cartridge is really cutting edge, if we trust the manual:

"You now own the most useful and complete cartridge utility ever produced ... It contains the fastest Commodore-compatible DOS ever produced, allowing you to format disks, load, save, verify, and copy files up to ten times faster than before! " 馃槀

The new black darkmode theme with its icons is just stunning beautiful... Can't put my eyes away from it...

The cartridge seems to work fine, but the dedicated cartridge men霉 with its reset button is missing.
Has it to be added or not ?

I didn't add a dedicated menu, yet. Before doing so, I want to ask if somebody knows any cartridge that has buttons other than "Reset" or "Freeze". If not, it might be better to add two menu items "Reset" and "Freeze" to the cartridge menu and to enable or disable these items according to the plugged in cartridge. Otherwise, we end up with more and more submenus (for each cartridge with buttons) with the exact same menu items and the same functionality.

Warpspeed has only a reset button and a switch for compatibily mode (C64/C128), it has not a freezer option.
It would be more easy for me to have only a standard button men霉 for cartridge, if a cartridge has not a button it will be grayed (like the smooth filter option that non worked yesterday)

@dirkwhoffmann this issue is closed, why is off the reset button in the menu ?
This cartridge has a reset button

Reset button will be enabled for this cart in V3.1
