The official, canonical documentation for batari BASIC.
batari Basic (bB) is a BASIC-like language for creating Atari 2600 games. It is a compiled language that runs on a computer, and it creates a binary file that can be run on an Atari 2600 emulator or the binary file may be used to make a cartridge that will operate on a real Atari 2600.
A reference for batari BASIC, a compiled dialect of BASIC for the Atari 2600.

C64OS.com has grown from its original purpose as an outlet for me to blog about my adventures in learning to code in 6502 and my progress towards the development of a simple, single–tasking, event–driven operating system. It is growing into a resource for new and returning users of the Commodore 64 and 128 to find out about all the great new things being developed both in hardware and software. The aim of C64 OS is to work with the limitations of the Commodore 64 and enable it to become useful.
A collection of manuals, instructions, schematics and information pamphlets related to the Commodore C64 computer at the Internet Archive.
It is here you'll find all sorts of 3D printed parts for your Atari, Apple, Commodore 64/128, VIC-20, Amiga, Texas Instruments computers and other interesting applications. If you have any questions about the products you see here, or have a need for a part you don't see, please do send us a message. We'll respond to you as soon as we can.
We are also beginning to feature difficult to find Commodore electronics projects. Be sure to watch for new additions.
Turbo Chameleon 64, Flickerfixer, Turbo, REU (and A LOT more) for the Commodore 64
Back in 2008, the idea came up to create a cycle exact floppy disk drive emulation of the Commodore 1541 drive, and embed this emulated drive in a cartridge for the Commodore 64 home computer. Today, the 1541 Ultimate and related products have become indispensable extensions for the Commodore 64 and 128 computers. According to some users, it has completely changed the way they use the old machine as it nearly eliminated the need for real floppy disks. In 2016, the Ultimate-II+ cartridge was released. This is the latest version of the 'Ultimate' cartridge.

The Neoram module is a replica of the Georam extension with battery backup by Nicolas Welte (X1541). This was created in the summer of 2006 and over time became the first small series. The picture (left) shows the first fully equipped version. The maximum expansion with 2MB SRAM expands the memory of the C64 many times over and gives it completely new possibilities.
In the past, the predecessor Georam, as the name suggests, was specially developed for Geos. Geos users can hardly be found today. But that doesn't make the extension useless.
The programming is identical to the Georam and in principle very simple. A 16kB page is selected via banking, from which a 256-byte window is always displayed.
Omnivore is a cross-platform app for modern hardware (running linux, MacOS and Windows) to work with executables or media images of Atari 8-bit, Apple ][+, and other retrocomputer machines and game consoles.
xBIOS is like a programmers version of DOS. With it you can easily access files from your programs without using Atari DOS. It is smaller than DOS and therefore saves memory in your programs. You can even run programs from as low as $0200, however $0800 or $2000 are more common.
Limitations
- New files cannot be created.
- Existing files cannot be extended in length.
- New directories cannot be created programatically.
