I want to do more coding for my beloved #atari800xl so I created this #fastbasic syntax highlighting plugin for Neovim!

It'll probably work on Vim too but I haven't tested it there.

haha... i got my son, with me in the Philippines, to talk with someone in Poland over IRC using my #Atari800XL with #Fujinet-PC running #FujiNetChat. he enjoyed the experience.

One can use an #Atari8bit computer like an #Atari800XL, or #atari800 emulator with #FujiNet-PC to connect to a CP/M #cpm emulator.

#retrocomputing #atari

There's a 2.9kb binary file that runs on #Atari8bits with #FujiNet that quickly connects you to the Southern AMIS Projects 2026 - #Atari Gateway.

Here's a short demo.

btw, the "app" is even smaller than the animated GIF here. :D

today, i worked on implementing netsio proceed signal handling in the #atari800 emulator. after hours of dev, I got it working and submitted a PR to the github:atari800/atari800 project.

I got FujinetChat to work on my Atari 800XL! But only after fixing some code in fujinet-firmware to get the PROCEED signal properly handled for SIO2PC.

The fix was submitted as my first PR to the fujinet-firmware project on github. It was accepted. :)

FujinetChat is an IRC client for Atari 8-bit computers written by Urchlay.
