Description: Today is August 27th, 1904. Nine months ago, you, Emilia Vittorini, joined the Italian Archeological Expedition in Egypt led by Ernesto Schiaparelli, the director of the Egyptian Museum of Turin. You are now back in Genova, Italy: your steam ferry arrived three days ago with 25 wooden boxes containing Queen Nefertari Meritmut's grave goods, a real treasure! They left Genova by train, heading towards Turin, yesterday evening. While they were in transit, you were invited to a sumptuous reception organised by a wealthy art lover, Eugenio Collovati, count of Raligotto, but it would be hard to say that you appreciated the evening.
But the reception was yesterday: now, you must catch the train to Turin and check that the treasure arrived safely. I will be your eyes and ears. Good luck.

wAx is a set of machine language monitor tools in the form of a BASIC wedge. Unlike other ML monitors, you never need to switch between the BASIC and monitor environments. Monitor commands, including assembly, register setting, and memory editing, may be entered in either direct mode or within BASIC programs. Using BASIC, memory and register setup can be automated, allowing you to generate reproducible unit tests for machine language subroutines.
With the optional 6502X table extension (included), wAx supports all 6502 "illegal" instructions.
