Dr. Watson - Beginners Assembly Language Programming for the VIC20 | Category: VIC-20 Programming Books | 02-08-25 |
This book is a self-paced course on machine-code/Assembly-language programming based on the 6502A microprocessor. In order to overcome the usual difficulty associated with assembly languages, the Mnemonics used are totally uniform throughout the book and the instruction set used is that employed by the assembler that was written especially to accompany this text. Most of the examples are designed to be loaded via this assembler and all are designed to run on the Commodore VIC-20. |

White Lightning & Basic Lightning Supplement | Category: Software Manuals [C64] | 02-07-25 |
This manual is supplied as a supplement to the Basic and White Lightning manuals. It is intended to give further explanation and examples of the IDEAL graphics routines covered in those manuals. The Lightning series of products has been designed in such a way that the IDEAL graphics commands used in Basic and White Lightning not only have the same syntax and operation, but also use the same parameters. Therefore most of the IDEAL commands will be explained with the aid of Basic Lightning, using Basic Lightning examples, as this should make it easier for most users to understand. |

Basic Lightning Manual | Category: Software Manuals [C64] | 02-07-25 |
BASIC LIGHTNING is an extension to the CBM64's resident BASIC interpreter which adds over 150 ccmmands. The additional ccmmands cover three main areas: structured programming, graphics and sound. One of BASIC LIGHTNING'S most powerful features is the ability to multi-task; up to five parts of a BASIC program can be run at once. A compiler for BASIC LIGHTNING will be available in early 1985 which will produce "stand-alone" compiled programs which can be marketed without paying royalties. The structured programming ccmmands included in BASIC LIGHTNING include all the control ccmmands found in PASCAL. This includes multiple-line IF-THEN-ELSE, REPEAT-UNTIL, WHILE-WEND as well as PROCEDURES with full parameter passing (including arrays), multiple-line functions and CASE-OF. The sound and graphics ccmmands included are the same as those in WHITE LIGHTNING, adapted to BASIC syntax, and include ccmmands to plot points, draw lines, move software sprites to and frcm the screen, scroll blocks of the screen or sprites with character or pixel resolution, rotate, invert or mirror sprites or screen windows and exchange sprites with parts of the screen. You can also make use of the 64's inbuilt hardware sprites and it is possible to redefine the 64's character set. |

White Lightning Manual | Category: Software Manuals [C64] | 02-07-25 |
White Lightning is a high level graphics development system for the Commodore 64. It is aimed primarily at the user who has commercial games writing in mind and has Assembly language has three advantages over most high level languages: speed, flexibility and compactness. During the running of an arcade game, the processor spends most of its time manipulating screen data, and if the appropriate commands are implemented in the language, the execution "overhead" is very small. Add to this the fact that considerable time has been spent on the routines themselves to optimize execution speed, and we feel most machine code programmers would be hard pressed to better White Lightning for speed. As far as flexibility is concerned, White Lightning has almost 300 commands as well as access to BASIC and machine language if required. A lot of the tricky routines like rotations and enlargements are already implemented for you. As far as compactness goes, Forth itself produces very compact code, but there is, of course, the overhead of the language itself. Assembly language has four major drawbacks. Firstly, you've got to learn it. Having mastered machine code, program development is very slow compared with a typical high level language, there is no "crash protection" whatsoever, and to produce effective results, you need a fairly intimate knowledge of the machine you're working with. BASIC has several points in its favor, these are: excellent crash protection, extremely readable source code and a relatively short learning curve. These features make BASIC a very good introduction to programming for the hobbyist, but for the serious games writer, the language is insufficient in terms of both its speed and flexibility. White Lightning is Forth based and therefore has virtually the speed of machine code, no knowledge of the machine is required, the source code is relatively readable, and it is fairly well protected from crashing. |

Steve "Writer" v1.0 | Category: Noters | 02-05-25 |
Steve "Writer" v1.0 by GreyRat is a note writer with the ability to add your own character sets. The other thing that is pretty neat about this writer is the animated starfield that plays when your note is displayed. Look close at the stars, there was a lot of attention to detail put into the display. This is a PAL based program, so the intro and music speed is not right on NTSC. |

SpeedCalc 2019 | Category: Spreadsheets | 02-05-25 |
SpeedCalc 2019 by İlker Fıçıcılar is the enhanced version of the original SpeedCalc 1986. This new version features "Exit to Final III+ Desktop". You can include the SpeedCalc 2019 in the Final III plus cartridge EPROM, run it by selecting from the menu, and turn back to the Final Cartridge III desktop after exiting the SpeedCalc. This integrated approach helps to experience a seamless desktop computer use. I've also prepared other productivity software (EasyScript, terminal software, etc.) with the same "Exit to Desktop" feature. All can be included in the Final III plus cartridge ROM. Another enhancement is the 2MHz support for the C64 mode of the C128. Commodore 128 owners can enjoy the extra speed. In addition to 25% faster execution, the recalculation is two times faster now. SpeedCalc 2019 comes in two forms: Cartridge and Normal PRG. You can burn the cartridge version into an 8K EPROM or into EasyFlash, etc. and use it as a plug-and-calculate software. See this website for original source and more information. |

!-Load | Category: Fast Loaders | 02-05-25 |
!-Load by Dos-Software is a 7x fast loader. There isn't anything special about it that I could detect and it's 6 blocks in size, so it's just average based on others I've seen. If I was going to use a fast loader, I'd want the smallest one available, but you never know, this one might have some compatibility advantages. |

PAKRATT Model PK-64 & HFM-64 Operating Manual | Category: Hardware Manuals [C64] | 02-03-25 |
This operating manual is furnished with the AEA PK-64 Pakratt Data Controller. It is designed to give you an introductory idea of what Packet Radio is all about. It is not intended to give a comprehensive treatment of the subject - there is a reading bibliography of many fine articles and books in the appendix to this manual. You will learn in the remainder of this introduction a little bit about what packet radio is, what some of the terms are (there is a glossary in the appendix), what happens in a typical QSO and what appears on the screen. |

Text File Browser | Category: Seq. File Tools | 02-02-25 |
Text File Browser by Michael Beutjer is a nice utility for viewing .SEQ files. The program is completely menu driven and easy to use with built-in instructions. This particular archive is actually a QS! Public Domain Disk #10 with many documentation files on it along with the Text File Browser. On the disk are the following doc files: Wargames, Whistler Brothers, Wizard & the Princess, Pogo Notes (Logo for the PET), Word Processor Docs, MicroMon v2, Term Plus 80, Easy Script Quick Reference, Fleet System 2 Rapid Reference Chart, Paperclip Command Help, Copy 250 Docs, BASIC Aid, Punterminal, Adventure Workshop, 1541 Alignment Docs & C64 Wedge docs. There are some additional doc files on the disk that are in PRG form and are probably from some particular word processor because if I convert them to SEQ I can read them mostly but there is other embedded jiberish. |
