Written by Mike Conforti. Auto-Booter will convert a BASIC program into an auto boot program meaning you won't have to type "run" after the program is done loading.

BASIC Primer for the Commodore 64 by the NorthWest group of California - Although this is titled as an introduction to BASIC programming, it doesn't lean towards the technical side of things.  I would consider this more of an introduction to the Commodore 64 and the 1541 Disk Drive along with some commands you would use from BASIC to control your computer.

This archive includes the full NorthWest Starter Kit.  There are some other utilities / programs you might find useful on it.

BASIC Squasher can be used to compress the code listing of your BASIC program down to minimal space.

Check Please! v1.0 by Ratastic - Released January 21st, 1994 - This is a small utility that will help proofread your BASIC programs as you type them in.  These were very common with magazines that published type in programs.  Basically you'd type in your line of code and after hitting enter, you get a checksum number back that would match the one printed in the magazine.

Display "Load" Address by Brian Hinz is a small little utility that will read a file from disk and display in both decimal and hex where it loads into memory.

Written in 1987 by Christian Link. Easy Systems IV is a decimal / Binary / Hex converter. You can convert in any way all three types of numbering systems.

Flow/64 v2.1 by W.B. Taylor is a tool that will create a graphical flow chart of a BASIC program that you can print to screen or printer.  Very neat program!  There is a sample BASIC program on the disk you can test it out with.

"LADS Source Code Generator" (LSCG) is a BASIC program which will read machine language code and/or data from memory and create a LADS source code file from it. This program allows you to use other programmers' ML routines in your own ML programs, and to more easily modify, relocate, and study the routines.

This is a handy programming tool for BASIC. You load this into memory, then load you BASIC program and type SYS 49515 or SYS 49518 to send to printer or screen respectively.

This program reads a sequential file containing the text of a BASIC program and turns it into an executable BASIC program you can list, run or save to disk.

Merger uses an old dynamic keyboard trick to 'merge' a text file into your program. Merger opens the text file, reads in a line of BASIC code, prints the line of code to the screen, positions the cursor on that line, and then executes a carriage return to enter the line of code into the program.

Written by David P. Darus, Ken French and Louis R. Wallace. Program Graphics Management 64 Is a library of very fast machine-language subroutines that you use like BASIC commands. This system allows you to use the high-resolution graphics and animation of the Commodore 64 without BASIC's speed limitations, and also have the use of the RAM hidden under the operating system. Docs, API info and demos are on the disk.

 A. Millett - This program will compare two programs from disk and show the differences. No limit to the program size.

Found this pretty neat little BASIC programming aid the other day when browsing C64 related YouTube videos.  This utility allows you to modify REM statements in a BASIC program so that the characters are reversed and easy to spot when scrolling through your listing.

Here's a link to the YouTube video by the "Retro Old Guy" that explains in detail how the program works.

Adapted from Original by Joel Rubin, modified by Tony Romer - Text to BASIC will convert a sequential file document into a program file. Works with both tape and disk.

Written by Matthew Desmond. Trash Compactor is a program that will read a BASIC v2.0 program from disk, take out all REMS and all unnecessary spaces renumber the program, and write a new version back to disk. This has the advantage that the program does not have to be in memory at the same time, so that really long programs can be 'compacted'.

Zounds is a neat collection of various sound effects created in BASIC with just POKES and FOR loops.  If you need some simple sound effects for a game or demo you want to write in BASIC, this would be a good file to rip those from.
