pdf4 Epyx Fastload Manual

Epyx FastLoad for the Commodore 64 is a plug-in cartridge that dramatically speeds up disk access with the 1541 drive—often cutting load times to a quarter or less of normal—while also adding a compact DOS-style command set and handy utilities. Once plugged into the expansion port, it auto-installs its own wedge, letting you use short commands for directory listings, disk copying, and file operations, plus a built-in machine code monitor and reset function that returns you to BASIC without power-cycling. Many games and programs remain compatible with it, so for a lot of C64 owners it became a near-permanent “quality of life” upgrade: faster loads, easier disk handling, and quick access to low-level tools all from one little cartridge.

The following is intended for people who are unfamiliar with the uses of a machine language (M.L.) monitor program. However, it is not a tutorial in the architecture of the VIC or the 6502. Nor is it intended to teach 6502 assembly language programming. In fact, some knowledge of assembler language will be most helpful. It IS intended to help the beginner get started in using HESMON. Even those who know nothing about the 6502 or the VIC will find some of HESMON's corrmands useful (see, for example, the Interpret Memory corrmand).

It contains the fastest Commodore-compatible DOS ever produced, allowing you to format disks, load, save, verify, and copy files up to ten times faster than before! In addition. Warp Speed includes: a full-featured machine language computer-and-disk-drive monitor/assembler, with up/down scrolling and an integrated sector editor; an expanded DOS wedge for convenience when using a disk drive; complete support for two or more disk drives, including a 30-second two-drive copier for making convenient backups of your unprotected disks; a reset button; and an "unnew" feature to restore BASIC programs, for recovering control of your computer when you experience a "crash".

All Warp Speed functions work identically on the 64 and 128 in both 40- and 80-column modes, and are fully compatible with most commercial software, including many heavily protected programs that are incompatible with other cartridge utilities. They also work with most compatible disk drives, including the new Commodore 1581 floppy drives and several of the new hard disk drives available, as well as the MSD dual drive popular with many developers.

Whether you are a beginner, a serious hacker, or a professional developer, you will find Warp Speed an indispensable aid which you may never remove from your computer once you have plugged it in!
