Oliver Schmidt fb5d0b7ef0 Made 80 column display a cc65 application attribute. 
So far 80 column display was an attribute of a cc65 platform. Now each cc65 application can ask for 80 column display by defining WITH_80COL. Of course this is ignored by platforms incapable of 80 column display.

I see three types of application:

* Applications not benefitting from 80 column at all and in fact looking better with 40 column display. These are now using 40 column display. Examples: ethconfig, ipconfig

* Applications taking advantage of 80 column display if it is available without drawbacks. These stay as they were. Examples: Telnet server, web server, wget

* Applications needing 80 column display so urgently that it is likely desirable even if the display becomes harder to read. These come now in both flavors allowing the user to choose. Examples: IRC, web browser

Note: This change doesn't actually introduce any 80 column display with drawbacks. This if left to a subsequent change.

README.md

Commodore 64

The platform/c64/ directory is used for targeting a Commodore 64 computer. Most things are shared between the 6502-based targets so please consult cpu/6502/README.md for further details.

The following C64 Ethernet cards are supported:

  • RR+RR-Net: Use driver cs8900a.eth with address $DE08.
  • TFE: Use driver cs8900a.eth with address $DE00.
  • ETH64: Use driver lan91c96.eth with address $DE00.

In most cases it is desirable to use an emulator for the development and testing of a Contiki application. VICE is especially well suited as it emulates both the RR-Net and TFE Ethernet cards. It is available at http://www.viceteam.org/.

The c64 target supports a PFS that requires less RAM than the POSIX file system and converts UNIX path names to CMD syntax for CMD drives and IDEDOS 0.90+. Its primary feature however is support for IDE64 fast read/write.
