The monitor of the pixel art computer on the upper right seems to say
"C:".
It should rather say "]".
Hi all,very rusty! (I had learned how to do it myself and I was never really that experienced to begin with). I had to re-learn some HTML code, and I had to look up things that have changed. The website is very basic (pun actually not intended!), but I'm happy
Now that I FINALLY figured out how to transfer programs I made on my Apple II+ to a modern computer with a serial connection, I made a website where a few of my programs are available to download. It's been a LONG time since I've made a website and I'm
The programs are in zip files. They include a .DO disk image which you can load in an emulator like AppleWin. There are also .wav files which you can use to transfer the program to a real Apple II computer, using the "cassette input" jack. I made thewav files with C2T. Just insert a blank disk into the Apple II drive, type "LOAD" and play the wav file. The program will be automatically copied onto the disk. Probably most of you are already familiar with the process. Most of the programs have 2
I also included the BASIC source code in a separate folder, which you could use to transfer to a real Apple II with a serial connection by sending the text of the code.everything about the program and how to use it...I definitely recommend reading it!
Please also be sure to read the README text file in the zip files. They tell a little more about the programs and how to use them. The "Map Maker" program is definitely the biggest and most complex program. I wrote a thorough manual that explains
At the moment, I have 3 programs available - "Cozy Cottage," "Common Calculations," and "Map Maker." I'm working on more!
If anyone is interested in physical copies of the program with a floppy disk and printed manual, just let me know. I had the manual for Map Maker printed and bound, and it turned out pretty nice!

Although the site is called "Lab6502," it won't be strictly limited to Apple II and other 6502 based computers. That will probably be my MAIN focus (I love writing programs for old 8-bit computers!), but in the future I will also have programs forWindows with kind of a "retro" feel. Maybe also MS DOS. At the moment though, I am focusing on Apple II BASIC programs. I'm working on a few others right now and hopefully I'll be ready to add them to the website soon. They are still relatively simple
- ChrisLove the simple programs, especially. And it is fabulous you're thinking about MS-DOS as well. That is still a favorite of mine to this very day. Yes, people are still coding for it in 2021, there have been recent "retro" programming events where the
