   GEOS/Wheels VLIR module code   
   21 Dec 15 12:52:21   
   
   I was wondering if there is anybody here that might have an interest in   
   GEOS/Wheels code,   
   Im needing to find out something,   
      
   Mainly VLIR routines and us there actual VLIR modules that can be programmed I   
   have heard for larger apps that would use up   
   the allotted GEIS/Wheels SYSTEM ram.  From what I have heard using the VLIR   
   module you do a task, load a new module another task   
   etc.  I was told that Geo Publish uses VLIR or perhaps the VLIR module.   
      
   I was hoping an experienced ML/GEOS coder could show an example of how VLIR   
   and VLIR module can be coded.   
   Im using Concept Plus and Super CPU for faster assembly and linking.    
   GeoProgrammer was okay but the upgrades   
   Concept and Concept Plus fix all earlier bugs, easier for beginners, em.. :)   
      
   The GEOS Programmers Reference manual helps but I have found the examples   
   float over my head, which is why I wish an   
   experienced ML/GEOS programmer could explain this is all.   
      
   The Wheels author does not wish for me to contact him so I cant ask him, or   
   otherwise I would.   
      
   Maybe others might be helped by this too if we stick together and help each   
   other in the scene, but I know this is not supported much   
   so probably no interest, but I like GEOS and Wheels.  Wheels more so for its   
   drivers and advanced ways of coding for 8-bit and 16-bit   
   code.  If the author is not able why not those who still enjoy this OS try our   
   own apps.   
      
   The problem I know is not having the Wheels routines tonmy knowledge are just   
   notes that were never released, but never were   
   written as a Wheels Prg Ref guide. (the authors fault). I wont go any farther,   
   but I do know of the Wheels routines.   
      
   Happy Holidays,  crank up those Holiday SIDS.  :)
