Apple II ProDOS meaning Professional Disk Operating System, became the most popular operating system for the Apple II family.
This is the original ProDOS, renamed ProDOS 8 in version 1.2, was distributed from 1983 to 1993 and was released to address shortcomings in the earlier Apple operating system, called Apple DOS, which only has built-in support for 5.25" disks and required patches for peripheral devices such as hard disk drives and non-Disk-II floppy drives. ProDOS included: ROM-based drivers on expansion cards for disk devices; expanded the volume size from about 400 Kb to 32 Mb, introduced support for hierarchical subdirectories; supported RAM disks on machines with 128Kb or more of memory; solved problems with handling hardware interrupts; and included programming and expansion interfaces.
ProDOS had its developmental roots in SOS, the Apple III operating system released in 1980.
ProDOS 16, was a stop-gap solution for the 16-bit Apple IIgs that was replaced by GS/OS.
The items included here are part of the Workbench Binder A7P0001
ProDOS Technical Reference Manual A2W0010 explains how to use the machine-language routines upon which the Filer program, the DOS-ProDOS Conversion program, and the BASIC system program are based.
There should be 2 other manuals: the ProDOS User's Manual which explains how to copy, rename and remove files using the ProDos Filer program and use the OS-ProDOS Conversion program. Basic Programming with ProDOS covers that language and how to store and retrieve information on ProDOS disks using Applesoft BASIC.
ProDOS Assembler Tools A2W0013 describes the 4 Programming Tools to write assemble and debug assembly-language programs: Editor; Assembler to translate assembly-language source code into executable 6502 object programs; Bugbyter debugging program; Relocating Loader to load and execute assembly-language programs during the execution of a BASIC program.
