The recently added doesclrscrafterexit() allows cc65 programs to determine if the screen will be cleared after exit(). If that isn't the case then there's no need to ask the user to press a key in order to allow him to read the final program output.
ProDOS requires for each opened file a user-supplied page-aligned 1024 byte i/o buffer. This makes the generic POSIX file i/o library contained in the cc65 C-library quite heavyweight.
In contrast the lightweight pfs implementation uses the uIP packet buffer as ProDOS i/o buffer. Therefore:
- Only one file may be open at any time.
- That file may not be open while the uIP packet buffer is used by uIP. The open()/read()/close() sequence should be completed before Contiki event scheduling or inside handling a single Contiki event.
- The uIP packet buffer must be large enough to hold the ProDOS I/O buffer. Depending on the position of the uIP buffer in memory this means between 1024 and 1024 + 256 bytes. Therefore in an Ethernet environment setting the MTU_SIZE to at least 1266 is safe (So the default of 1500 is just fine).
