Couldn't locate the Commodore 64 version of the Sky Travel manual, but found this Macintosh version that was released around the same time, so maybe it will be useful in conjunction with the Sky Travel 64 Addendum.

Update - Thanks to Bruce Thomas, we now have the manual, cheat sheet and easter eggs!

Thank you for purchasing the SNAPSHOT 64 ENHANCEMENT DISK! This disk includes several utilities for use with programs archived by the SNAPSHOT 64 cartridge. These utilities are NOT required for the normal use of SNAPSHOT 64 - they are simply the aids most frequently requested by SNAPSHOT 64 owners. The utilities on the ENHANCEMENT DISK Include:

• NEW BOOT PROCESS - The boot process has been updated, allowing SNAPSHOT 64 to successfully archive more programs than ever! The new boot can be added to previously SNAPSHOT'ed programs separately or in combination with the other options below.
• FAST BOOT MAKER - Adds a fast loader to programs already archived by SNAPSHOT 64. Can also be used to restore the original "slow" boot to the program if desired.
• CARTRIDGE MAKER - Creates a cartridge version of virtually any SNAPSHOT'ed program! The program will download and run from the cartridge in just a few seconds!
• COMPRESSION UTILITIES - For examining the compressed files 1n a SNAPSHOT'ed program. Decompress a file to memory, examine or modify 1t, then recompress it back to disk.
• MEMORY USE DISPLAY - Displays the memory areas used by a SNAPSHOT'ed program.

All of these utilities have been carefully designed for convenience and reliability. Even a novice can create a cartridge or install the fast boot! Of course, each utility is thoroughly explained in this manual, just 1n case any questions arise.

Besides covering the utilities above, this manual will also provide detailed information about the files created by SNAPSHOT 64. You can use this information to investigate SNAPSHOT'ed programs.

S.A.M. -- the Software Automatic Mouth -- a versatile, high-quality speech synthesizer created entirely in software. You have added quality speech to your personal computer for a lower cost than ever before possible and, in the bargain, have gained features that other speech synthesizers cannot offer.

S.A.M. is designed to be easy to use. With a couple of simple program statements, you can add speech to your BASIC or assembly-language programs. When you have mastered the easy-to-learn phonetic alphabet, the inflection system, and the use of pitch and speed controls, you will be amazed at what you can make S.A.M. do. And, until then it will already match the performance of other speech synthesizers.

Note - this is a really bad scan of the manual, but it's the only Commodore 64 version I could find.

Here is a nice clean scan of the SAM - the Software Automatic Mouth.  Although it's for the Apple, most of the information is relevant to the Commodore 64 version also.

SPEEDWRITER is a BASIC compiler for the CBM 64. The programs originate in the United Kingdom and are improved and upgraded versions of DTL BASIC COMPILER, developed for Commodore business computers.

The function of a compiler is to convert a program from its source form (ie. the form in which it is written) into a more efficient form that can run much faster than the original.

SPEEDWRITER has been specially optimized for the CBM 64 and it not only makes every BASIC program a lot faster but will also make each program significantly smaller, except for programs with only a few lines.

SPEEDWRITER is 100% compatible with CBM 64 BASIC . This means that any existing BASIC 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.

SPEEDWRITER is designed so that it can be used by people with no programming knowledge to compile existing programs. Yet for more experienced users, a range of facilities is provided to enable the full potential of the CBM 64 to be realized.

Here's a link to the program.

SPEEDY ASSEMBLER is a comprehensive machine code development package, which is suitable for both the beginner in machine coding and the experienced programmer, who wants to write large, complicated machine-code programs.

To the best of our knowledge, SpellRight Plus/64 is the most capable proofreading software available for Commodore Microcomputers. Yet, SpellRight Plus/64 is actually a very simple computer program, requiring the operator to learn only a few commands and keystrokes. with a little assistance, the average user is capable of operating SpellRight Plus/64 in less than 30 minutes of study/instruction. Though simple to learn and operate, you will find that SpellRight Plus/64 will save you hours of drudgery while proofreading your important documents. In many cases, SpellRight Plus/64 can save hundreds of hours of professional and clerical time, while improving the quality and appearance of your documents. To maximize those savings, we ask a relatively simple favor.

The Spence System BBS. A program which has come back to haunt us again and again. A program which is never really complete. A program which continually groNns, evolves, improves and takes us every last clock cycle of our spare time. A program which had cast our names into modemland history and has made us less money than running a Kool-aid stand in January.

The Spritemaster 64 animation program is designed as a sprite generator and editor for use by programmers or as a fun and creative playmate for children or adults.

Sprites are movable object blocks which, through the power of the new Commodore 64 computer, can be made to imitate almost any moving object.

Spritemaster helps you build your sprite, then copy and modify it to produce a sequence of pictures which represent the object in motion. The Animate command will then put each picture on the screen in rapid succession to create the animation. This is similar to what takes place in a movie projector where still photographs, each a slightly different picture, are rapidly projected one after another onto the screen to produce a “ motion picture.”

Spritemaster lets you modify your sprite picture sequence to produce colors, shapes and sizes which give the best effect. In addition, you may change the speed of animation (the rate at which the still frames are displayed) or the speed of travel (the vertical or horizontal movement across the screen).

Once you have created your animated figure, you can save the informaton to tape or disk for retrieval at a later time. You may want to refine several figures for use in a game program. Although Spritemaster is not a game program, it is a program to create game objects. For example, it cannot display a pitcher throwing a baseball to a catcher. It can, however, be used to create the pitcher as a separate sprite, including the throwing motion, then the baseball as another sprite, and then the catcher as the final sprite. Each object is created separately and then transfered to other programs for interaction and movement as desired. The programmer’s reference section provides guidance on how to manipulate sprites in your own programs.

The Super C compiler is a four-part system. An editor makes it easy to enter programs. The programs are translated into machine language by the compiler. The compiler is a complete version of the C language except for bit fields. The linker binds separately compiled programs together. The fourth component of the system is a disk manager which can be used to copy files.

The SUPER FAST FILE BACKUP is the fastest file duplicating system available for the Commodore 64 computer. Also Included with the program is a set of helpful utilities for disk organization. These utilities and the SUPER FAST FILE BACKUP utilize the same hardware as the 21-Second Backup for all data transfer between computer and drive.

The SUPER FAST FILE BACKUP AND UTILITIES are Intended to be used for duplication and organization of pesky copy-protected disks using one or two 1541 disk drives.

This is the handbook to your SUPER Pascal Development System for the Commodore 64 and 128. The minimum hardware required to run SUPER Pascal is a C-64 (or C-128 in C64 mode), a 1541, and a television or
monitor. A second disk drive and printer will let you take full advantage of SUPER Pascal.

This handbook is designed to help you understand the workings of SUPER Pascal, assuming that you have had experience in the Pascal language. It is not a basic course in Pascal, and makes no claims to that effect Before using SUPER Pascal, you should be familiar with the PASCAL language and how it works.

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.

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.

SuperKey is a utility program for the Commodore 64 computer that allows you to redefine up to 96 keys on your keyboard. You can redefine some or all of the keys, and add, change or delete any of the definitions
at any time. The keys that you can redefine are the graphics characters that are accessed by pressing and holding either the SHIFT or Commodore keys prior to pressing one of the graphics keys. Throughout the remainder of this manual the SHIFT and Commodore keys will be abbreviated SH and C=, respectively.

Thanks to Anthony for providing this documentation.  Although it's a scan of a photo copy, so far it's the only manual I've ever seen for this software and it's much appreciated.

Note - If anyone has this utility, I would love to add it to the site.

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.

Supremacy was originally designed and written on another Commodore machine - the Amiga - and the main manual was written to describe the game and its controls as they appear on that machine.

In converting Supremacy to the Commodore 64, the programming team made very few compromises. The scenario and gameplay are identical, no matter which machine you are playing the game on, and the ‘point and click' user interface is functionally identical, although one or two minor changes have been made to the graphics.

The main manual, although it was written for the Amiga version of Supremacy, will serve you very well - it acts as a detailed guide to the game. Read it closely to get the maximum enjoyment out of Supremacy - who knows, with enough practice you might be able to beat Rorn and win control of the Yottsu system.

TAS-SIGN produces large lettering in a variety of sizes and styles on dot matrix printers. The eye-catching nature of the output produced by TAS-SIGN makes the program particularly suitable for printing signs, notices, p ost^ s and banners.

There is an essential procedure which you should carry out before you' use the program to create your own signs. This is to run the TAS-SIGN configuring program, TSCONFIG, to specify information about your make and model of printer and how it is attached to the computer. This procedure is described in section 2.

Section 3 is a tutorial introduction to the use of the program. You should work through this section on your computer to gain an initial understanding of the uses, capabilities and operation of the program.

Sections 4 and 5 are reference sections which list and describe the TAS-SIGN commands. Refer to the commands in these sections while working through the tutorial of section 3. Section 4 describes the editor commands which are used to type in, and correct, the text that is to be printed on the sign. Section 5 describes how to control the appearance of the printed sign.

Section 6 describes restrictions concerning the use of the program and errors which may be reported.
