It's not just for the VIC, but I find this page invaluable. Takes a BASIC .prg and turns it into a readable listing over the Web.

Has nice history about all commodores and even a VIC-20 area.

and

http://www.canberra.edu.au/~scott/C=Hacking/

has a lot of useful information about Commodore 8-bitters, a little less for the VIC, but anyway, I like these magazines.

Okay, that's recursive, but it is my favourite VIC-20 resource.

Great Job on the multicart, 6502 dude. I just watched the video of the meeting. I hope someone is working on a proper menu system for your project. Heck even i think i could possibly do a silly menu in basic that would work.


Anyways Im sticking my hand in the air as the 1st person in line for a multicart!!

everyone else get behind me!! :)

The menu is done and it works flawlessly. I had a chance to mess around with one and I was pleased to see how simple it is to use and impressed at how professional the whole thing feels.
In the end it will be as if nothing ever happened.

I don't think at the moment but Carlsson said me that when finished it publish the sources. In any case a PRG/D64 preview if possible will be appreciated, i've some ideas to implement/suggest.

I watched the video and I was very positively surprised.

I am happy that pretty much everyone who made a contribution to the project was named.

Here C4 Expo notes (very similar to TPUG notes)

When I get time, I will assemble all the bit pieces for the project and they will be on a single page.

Carlsson did menu, music, & custom character set that were in demo at C4 expo.

I agree.
I wish to add another features, software side, according to credits on 6502dude link i think i need to contact Carlsson, may you send me a prg or demo video to see how the menu works at the moment or may you list the menu features.

Sorry. I've been very lazy (understatement) in updating the page.
