Features Include:

• The ML1 License agreement does not require you to pay any fees or distribute your sourcecode.
• Includes scripts that define runtime ML1, a structured BASIC-like object oriented language for DOS that uses NASM (included) for assembly.
• Simple compilation and assembly with one command.
• All compiler library routines are sourcecode.
• Compiler generates fully commented ASM with optional comments that expand all ML1 macro calls.
• Supports unrolled loop compilation/optimization.
• Has a macro driven expression processor and expression code generator.
• Has a programmable code generator that can output assembly for a variety of microprocessors, making it useful for programming microcontrollers.
• Has a programmable peephole optimizer.
• Supports object oriented language definitions.
• Allows full access to the assembler from any language definition.
• Supports Big-Endian or Little-Endian variable definitions.
• Built in commands to support data coercion.
• Supports custom user designed variable types with user designed type checking rules, from none to strict.
• Fully documented, including 'C_TO_ML1.TXT', that explains ML1 from the 'C' perspective.

Download The ML1 Compiler and Documentation (1 Meg): ml1lang3.zip

Be sure to use the -d (preserve directories) option if you use PKUNZIP to unzip ML1 Packages:

PKUNZIP -d ML1LANG3

After unpacking the archives read 'LICENSE.TXT' and 'INSTALL.TXT' in the ML1 directory. Other documentation is in the ML1\DOC directory; check '0INDEX.TXT' for a full description.

Commodore C-64 and Commodore C-128 Programs:

Back in the 1980's I wrote some Commodore 64 and Commodore 128 software which lately I have been rescuing off of dusty old 1541 disks. Here is a feature filled Business Invoicing program and some general purpose utility programs in the hope that they will be useful to someone out there, all in a single ZIP (IBM format):

sdnc64.zip

Here is a 6502 Microprocessor Emulator for DOS written in BASIC that emulates C-64 and C-128 Kernal input/output routines and includes the emulator sourcecode and demo programs:
