Apple Logo //


I have been using TurtleArt with my third grade students and decided to give Apple Logo // a try on my Apple IIgs.

To make physical floppies I network boot the Apple IIgs to a Quadra 610 running AppleShare Server 3.

I download the .dsk file I need from the Internet and copy it to a HFS formatted floppy disk. Then I copy the .dsk file to a partition on my CFFA card in the Apple IIgs while booted to the AppleShare Server. I then reboot the Apple IIgs into ProDOS to run Dsk2File and write a physical floppy from the .dsk file.

I used the LCSI manual for Logo II on my MacBook to get me through a few tutorials and to draw some shapes.


I ended up working with Dr. Gary Stager's Dreamtime Designs for the afternoon. This project helped me better understand the role math can play in generating recursive patterns.

Stumbled across this - how timely. I'm looking to revive an old Apple Sprite Logo card. It would have run the LCSI Logo, but possibly a "Sprite Logo" version. You wouldn't happen to have a .DSK suitable for use with this, would you? I can't find my original floppy, and who knows if it'd even be readable anymore.

I'm glad you liked it!

Try to look for the disk on ftp.apple.asimov.net.
