pdf11 Infiltrator Disassembler v1.0 Reference Manual

Infiltrator Disassembler v1.0 Manual by Gerald Hinder.

Quote from the Introduction:

Once upon a time everyone was eager to find sprites, bitmaps, music or code somewhere in the RAM. Yea, we used the “Action Replay” and other cheat technology to get what we wanted. Infiltrator comes with those basic functionalities including some hopefully nice updates.

The disassembler uses forward interpretation with all the implied problems of this method. The basic concept is to process the complete memory, that´s why you can import PRG files as well as VICE snapshot files. Using VICE snapshots will naturally result in a lot of false interpretations. The included set of tools and methods may help you to master them.

INSTA-SPEED is 100% compatible with CBM 64 BASIC. This means that any existing 8ASIC program can be compiled without any alteration, to produce a program that peforms exactly the same, and yet is much faster and requires less memory and disk space.

INSTA-SPEED is designed so that it can be people with no programming knowledge to existing programs. Yet for more experienced range of facilities is provided to enable potential of the CBM 64 to be realized.
