Adding Hex Support To C64 BASIC смотреть онлайн

We examine and improve a short machine language program to add hexadecimal number support to Commodore 64 BASIC, so you can POKE $D020,1. The original program is from Raeto Collin West's excellent "Programming the Commodore 64: The Definitive Guide".

To use: LOAD"TMP",8,1 to load the assembler. SYS 32768 to start it. Back arrow (tilde in emulators) L to load. hex2 is the re-source of the original program, and hex8 is my modified program. Back arrow 3 to assemble, back arrow 1 to quit to BASIC, SYS 828 to start. Alternatively, LOAD"HEX2.O",8,1 or LOAD"HEX8.O",8,1 to load pre-assembled binaries of either version, SYS 828:NEW to start.
