Re: Copyright considerations

EhBASIC is an annotated and enhanced version of a disassembly of Microsoft Basic.
That is very interesting actually, I've only skimmed the pages on EhBASIC and wasn't aware of this fact. This does make it's inclusion in my program a bit easier to swallow.

I'd go ahead and sell your thing - If ...

Re: Copyright considerations

I came across the article this evening stating that Lee Davison passed away, I wasn't too active and/or I somehow missed the article when I was a bit active a few years back. My apologizes for not seeing them. I was a bit in shock and didn't expect to see those posts, my heart goes out to his family ...

Re: An in-browser 6502 assembler/simulator

Hello BigEd,

Your post really caught my eye, not because of the in-browser 6502 assembler/simulator, but it's use in an educational context. The goal of a new program I've been working on has the goal of being used in an educational context, and I'd personally like to know the viability of that ...

Doubt anyone asked for 6502 server-side web programming...

But here it is anyways, and now it exists!

I've been working on a fun side hobby project over the past several months, an application server dedicated to executing 6502 machine code as CGI type programs, but it offers a lot more than that. It is currently called VFS6502, the VFS portion as the ...

Started building a fun educational simulator this year

Hello everyone,

Looking back at when I posted here last, it's been quite awhile. I built this really cool 6502 Simulation Toy program earlier this year, but things got a bit stressful and I moved onto a few other things in life, but I am highly considering coming back to this project again in the ...

Re: First stages of a 65c02 CPU Emulator in ObjectPascal

Just added a major update this evening(at least in my timezone)...

Firstly there's a new markdown document: https://bitbucket.org/kveroneau/pas6502/src/default/USAGE.md

Also, it's now finally usable! You can load in a binary file, or hand assemble using the setB and setW method calls.

BRK or the ...

First stages of a 65c02 CPU Emulator in ObjectPascal

Well... not technically the first stages. All the opcodes have been all programmed in, I just need to test them and make sure all the opcodes work. ;)

https://bitbucket.org/kveroneau/pas6502/src/default/

This is technically part of my ArcVM project so that I can have a native binary on each ...

Re: ArcVM: Not your traditional 6502 emulator

When I read the original post, I thought the "virtual devices" would just be memory-mapped and accessed with regular 65xx instructions like LDA, STA, INC, BIT, etc. So the 65xx code would be "conventional", and the I/O would be where most of the magic occurred. Please correct me if my understanding ...

ArcVM: Not your traditional 6502 emulator

Last year I was pondering, and pondering hard about a fun, interesting, and most importantly, useful use-case for the 6502 instruction set. Then it hit me, why not create a modern Virtual Machine environment which uses the 6502 as the base instruction set, but it's goal is more similar to say a Java ...

Re: Curious on the sizes of various 6502 kernels

Thanks for the replies, 8K is a fair chunk. I do like some of the methods of parameter passing. ProDOS uses a parameter table, of which a pointer to it directly follows the JSR MLI op. This means that the ProDOS MLI routine needs to pop the return address from the stack to determine the the pointer ...

Curious on the sizes of various 6502 kernels

I am in the process of writing a kernel in 6502 for a project I am working on, and am kind of curious on how large the kernels were in the computers in the 80s which were powered by these processors.

What functions did these vintage computer kernels have? What sort of Kernel routines were exposed ...

Looking for a skilled 6502 assembler

I am not sure if I am able to post job-like advertisements here. If not, feel free to remove this topic, and I deeply apologize.

As some might know on this forum, I am working on a project which utilized a 6502 assembler and virtual machine to run an in-game virtual Internet for an MMO-type hacking ...

Re: 6502 Assembler

There's also the solution of rolling your own assembler for 6502, which may have advantages. Assembling 6502 doesn't require many resouces, and even dynamic languages like Python, Ruby, Perl, and .NET are more than capable. Furthermore, you could easily download a 6502 assembler already built in one ...

Re: Introducing myself to the 6502 forum

Thank you GARTHWILSON, I didn't realize that the 6502 was that capable, I am rather glad that I choose to use it as the Virtual Machine for my project now. This has definitely sparked my interest. I do recall now that the Apple IIe had a GUI, which also resembled the Mac interface, but lacked in ...
