The programming language C has been in existence since about 1972. It was developed by Dennis Ritchie and Brian Kernighan for the operating system UNIX.  More then 90% of UNIX was written in C.  With the spread of UNIX, C enjoyed greater popularity as well.  Super C now makes it possible to program in C on the C-64 or C-128.

Superbase 64 is a database program for the Commodore 64, released by Precision Software in 1984.

The SuperFORTH 64 I/O UTILITY PACKAGE is a collection of utility words designed to aid in Input / Output operations. The package covers three main areas:

1. RS232 utilities.

2. COMMODORE PRINTER/PLOTTER utilities.

3. KOALA PAD utilities.

The SuperFORTH MICRO MANUAL assumes that your programming experience has been largely that of BASIC and machine language. So you may be asking yourself: "What’s so different about FORTH, aside from the fact that it runs faster than BASIC?" The answer is: FORTH is like no other programming language you’ve ever used!

SUPER FORTH 64 is a complete implementation of the FORTH-79 Required and Extension Word Sets. It contains extensions from FIG FORTH, STARTING FORTH by Leo Brodie, and special extensions to take advantage of the particular hardware in the Commodore 64 computer.

Welcome to Superscript, the complete word processor for the Commodore 128 from Precision Software.  The tutorials cover only the beginners level of tuition, and get everyone going with the system as quickly as possible.  We've left some of the more advanced features of the program for a more leisurely learning session.

This manual presents the Superscript word processing system in different ways to suit individual learning preferences. We recommend that everyone goes through the TUTORIALS. These take you through a range of Superscript activities:

• Loading documents from disk
• Using menus and commands
• Creating new documents
• Updating documents, including cut and paste editing
• Arithmetic
• Handling a mailing
• Obtaining screen and printed output

A big thank you goes out to one of our visitors that has been kind enough to contribute this wonderful scan so we can take this of the "Wanted List".  Since I only know this person by their real name, I'll refrain from posting that info.

Manual for the software utility package called "The 1581 Toolkit".  This manual is for v2.02 of the software.

This manual describes the Assembly Language and assembly process for Commodore 64 programs which use one of the 6500 series microprocessors. Several assemblers are available for 6500 series program development, each is slightly different in detail of use, yet all are the same in principle. The 6500 series processors include the 6502 through the 6515 (the instruction sets are identical).

This is the Documentation for "The Fast Assembler" V3 by Yves Han, taken from Compute!'s Gazzete Issue 31 and also available in Best of Compute!'s Gazette, January 1988.  Here is a link to the software which also has this documentation included.

This is the complete reference manual for the Commodore 128 wordprocessor, "The Write Stuff 128", also know as BB Writer 128.

This is the startup instructions for the most excellent wordprocessor, "The Write Stuff", for the Commodore 128.

The Write Stuff is a collection of word processing software. The main program, BB Writer, is a high productivity, full-featured word processor for the Commodore 64. Although designed to meet the needs of advanced users, BB Writer, when used in "menu mode," is equally suitable for use by children and occasional users. BB Writer allows all essential edit-print-load-save features to be selected from menus. No special keyboard or embedded commands need to be learned. However, as the user gains experience, over 100 advanced features can be selected using keyboard and embedded commands.

BB Talker is the talking version of BB Writer that works with S.A.M., the Software Automatic Mouth. If you have the double-sided version, S.A.M. and BB Talker are both on the backside of the disk. BB Talker is on the single-sided version, but you must have a copy of S.A.M. to use it.

This is a keyboard overlay for the excellent wordprocessor called "The Write Stuff", for the Commodore 64.

The Write Stuff v2 - Featuring BB Speller - This isn't a complete manual, it mainly covers the spelling checker that's new in V2 called BB Speller.

The TIMEWORKS General Ledger system is designed for the first-time computer user who is familiar or relatively unfamiliar with the principles of accounting.  The computer and business control experts who created this system have taken extreme pains to make the system "user friendly" - while at the same time utilizing the size and capabilities of the Commodore 64 to their utmost.  Its easy-to-understand "cookbook" style instructions heralds a breakthrough in simplicity for every first-time computer user / business person, and assists you in operating your business more effectively and efficiently.

WRITER 64 is an easy-to-learn, easy-to-use GEOS-based writing tool ideal for creating a variety of documents. The program differs from other GEOS-based word processors in that font and style information are recorded rather than displayed during text entry, thus avoiding the huge delays associated with WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) displays.

Do you have a favorite program that requires various keyboard letters as input? A game or educational or word processor? The object of VOICE KEY is to let you command by voice instead of pressing keys! VOICE KEY will not interfere with most programs (provided they do not use random-access memory "behind" read-only memory). Load VOICE KEY. Attach VOICE MASTER to the rear joy stick port. Then train the computer to the particular command words you want to use and define the keystrokes that you want these words to enter into the computer. Then load in your favorite program and proceed to run it using either keystrokes or command words. Up to 18 words. Each
word can create up to 18 keystrokes including control characters. Complete instructions in manual. Disk is not copy protected. Special instructions for the popular "Speedscript" word processor.

With the advent of the affordable home computer, Pascal has become a very popular language.  In the past four years we have seen a tremendous offering in both Pascal compilers and application software written in the Pascal langauge. The Commodore 64 has become one of the most sought after micros because of its tremendous features at an unbelievably low price.  And the number of high quality software offerings for the Commodore 64 has skyrocketed in the past six months. We believe that ZOOM Pascal 64 is one such package.  It has excellent features at a very reasonable price.
