INVALUABLE PROGRAMMING INFORMATION
To POKE a value (0-65535) into two consecutive bytes, follow this procedure where B1 and B2 are the two bytes and V is the value:
POKE B1,V-INT(V/256)*256: POKE B2,INT(V/256)
In order to PEEK two bytes, do this where B1 and B2 are the two bytes:
PEEK(B1)+PEEK(B2)*256
Variable names may be up to 239 characters long, but only the first two characters are considered by BASIC.
To run the mini-assembler, load Integer BASIC into the language card, enter the monitor, and type F666G.
To disable the AUTO function in Integer BASIC, execute a <Control-X> and then enter the MAN command.
To execute a GOTO in immediate mode, enter:
POKE 51,0: GOTO line#
For a better random number generator, use:
INT(RND(PEEK(78)+PEEK(79)*256)*N+1)
where N is the high number limit.
To scrunch your program listings, execute a POKE 33,33.
To obtain the results of MOD in Applesoft BASIC:
remainder=X-(INT(X/Y)*Y)
where X and Y are the numbers to be divided.
To turn on the Mouse Character set, print a CHR$(27) (which is Esc). To turn off the alternate set, print CHR$(24). Only for Apple IIc, IIc+, IIgs, or enhanced IIe.
To round a number N digits to the right of the decimal point:
X=INT(X*10^N+.5)/10^N
To print 40-column text screen page one:
10 ? CHR$(4); "PR#1": PRINT CHR$(9); "80N"
20 FOR H=1024 TO 1104 STEP 40: FOR J=0 TO 896
30 FOR K=0 TO 39: A=PEEK(J+K+H)
40 A=A+(A<32)*192: A=A+(A<64)*128: A=A+(A<96)*64: A=A+(A<128)*64: A=A+(A<160)*64
50 ? CHR$(A);: NEXT K: ?: NEXT J,H
60 ?: ? CHR$(4); "PR#0"
To correct a "No Buffers Available" message, set MAXFILES to 3 or less.
To save a program that is in memory while DOS 3.3 or ProDOS isn't:
1. Enter the monitor 5. Enter the monitor again
2. Enter 4000<800.3FFFM 6. Enter 800<4000.8000M
3. Enter Control-C 7. Enter Control-C
4. Boot a DOS disk 8. LIST
To delete program lines greater than 63999, add this line (may be any line number) and GOTO it:
5000 A=PEEK(121)+PEEK(122)*256: A=A+3: POKE A-2,0: POKE A-1,0: POKE 175,A-INT(A/256)*256: POKE 176,INT(A/256)
In Applesoft BASIC, line numbers range from 0 through and including 63999.
In Integer BASIC, line numbers range from 0 through and including 32767.
When a negative decimal memory address is given, add 65536 to obtain the positive equivalent. Example: -21503 plus 65536 equals 44033. In the case that your brain or your calculator does not have a -/+ key, enter the negative address without the negative sign, subtract 65536, and ignore the negative sign given in the answer. Example: 21503 (negative address) minus 65536 equals -44033 (ignore the negative sign).
When a positive decimal memory address is given, subtract 65536 to find the negative equivalent. Example: 49152 minus 65536 equals -16384.
Another way to find an equivalent (negative or positive) is to subtract the address (if negative, do not enter a negative sign) from 65536. In your mind, add a negative sign to the answer if you wanted a negative equivalent. Example: 65536 minus 62436 (positive address) equals 3100 (negative equivalent; add a negative sign mentally). Another example: 65536 minus 3082 (negative address excluding the negative sign) equals 62454 (positive equivalent).
Eight bits equal one byte; Four bytes equal one nibble; One nibble equals one hexadecimal digit.
MSB is the abbreviation for Most Significant Byte (in $AC01, the MSB is $AC); LSB is the abbreviation for Least Significant Byte (in $AC01, the LSB is 1).

INVALUABLE MACHINE LANGUAGE INFORMATION
The monitor always uses hexadecimal; Dollar signs are not needed.
To enter the monitor, enter CALL -151; To leave it, enter <Control-C>.
To look at one address, type that address.
To list more than one address, type the first and last addresses to be looked at separated by a period.
Type a period followed by the last address to be looked at to see more addresses starting at the last address printed on the screen.
To look at the content of the next eight addresses, just press <Return>.
To enter data into memory, type the first address in the range of addresses to have data put into them, follow it by a colon, and begin typing the data.
To move a block of data in RAM, type this in:
addr1<add2.addr3M
where addr1 is the starting address of the new block location, addr2 is the starting address of the current location, and addr3 is the last address in the current location. Notice the "M" (which stands for Move) at the end of the commands.
Make sure, when moving a block of code, to change all branching addresses within.
To verify (or compare) two blocks of memory, follow this procedure:
addr1<addr2.addr3V
where addr1 is the starting address of either block, and addr2 and addr3 are the first and last addresses of the other, respectively. Notice the "V" (for Verify) at the end of the commands. If the two blocks are exactly alike, the monitor returns to the prompt symbol. If there is a difference between the two, the monitor prints the address of the first block, its content, and the content of the differing second block.
To disassemble 20 lines of instructions, type the beginning address to be disassembled followed by an "L" for list. Just entering an "L" again will disassemble the next 20 lines.
To execute a machine language program, type the beginning address of the program followed by a "G" for Go.
To direct output to the printer while in the monitor, type "1 <Control-P>" (1 stands for slot #1).
Immediate means "put this number in;" absolute means "put the number in that's contained in this address."
The beginning address of the mini-assembler is 2048 ($800) and the length is 328 ($148) bytes.
In order to display the current content of all the internal registers, enter <Control-E>.
To change the 6502's internal registers, type <Control-E>, colon, the register, and then the number to be plugged into that register.
