Title: Download area added & new forum

Added a download/upload manager & set up some base categories - I'll be adding my own collection into it over the coming days. Members can also upload files too.

If you think I've missed a category, feel free to let me know :-)

Important! the extension of the filename IS important - you can upload a file called FILE.sfx or file.sfx , but the system will reject FILE.SFX or file.SFX - remember! lower case for extensions!

Also added in another forum - 'Tips & tricks' for posting 128 tips & snippets.

Wouldn't the generic Programming forum be the spot to start with ? Certainly if there's a lot of conversations around a particular topic it would ultimately make sense to start a new forum, but I'm a little iffy about creating a lot of forums to start with. Just a thought :)

cheers,

CC65 is pretty alien to the majority of C= development.  Plus, there's no good central source for CC65 info other than the mailing list which has block yahoo.com email addresses.  Since we're starting something new here, why not aim high?  This place could be a central repository for sample code, compiled apps, etc.

The mailing list goes in fits and spurts.  Some days nothing, then you'll get a flurry of activity for weeks at a time.  However, much of the activity on the mailing list deals with non-128 related stuff.  The 128 is just one of several platforms supported by CC65.

Ok done & added an area in the files section too.

(I'm guessing the way this conversation is going that a shout box might be an option too)
