Quick ref: Pass arguments to machine code from the Monitor

When calling a machine code subroutine from the Monitor, one or two additional arguments can be passed by taking advantage of the way the Monitor uses delimiters to parse arguments from its command-line and stores them in the zero-page pointers A1, A2, A3, A4...in an arbitrarily-strange order:
  • The default argument is always the subroutine address, stored in A1.
  • Appending a '.' delimiter allows another argument to be stored in A2.
  • Inserting a '<' delimiter allows an argument to be stored in A4.

Apple pascal poster, remade

It's been a while since I've been around the fritter :). I figure this is the most likely forum here for this. Over the long weekend I dove into this recreation of the 1979 apple pascal poster. I aimed to keep the slightly hand-drawn feel to it.

The PDF is at the size I found mentioned on an auction of the original, and will print nicely at any local print shop, likely. It's an illustrator-editable pdf, as well as an svg, all text outlined. Do with it what you need, and enjoy!
