    Also, machincode before getting an assembler on the C64! JMP=32 JSR=96

      PEEK and POKE mostly, and typing hex codes into a special editor. Remember the games and utilities in the magazines? Also, a page of basic 2.0 code to draw a line And the amazing never before available Sprite Development.
