Native Macro Assembler option for CX16

Hi,

I'm presently trying to find out if there's already a native macro assembler package in the works, or already available for the Commander X16. I know about cross assembly/compiling on a modern PC but the fun of the CX16 is to go old school. I want to program on the real hardware directly.

Re: What case would you put you CX16 board into?

I'm presently designing my own case for my CNC. It will be a cherry/walnut case with an aluminium bottom and back panel. I'm also thinking of making the badge with a mix of brass, copper and aluminium.

Re: X16 Manufacturing, Mythbusting and more.

There is still VB.Net I would roll some dice to say its used in a lot of IN HOUSE development. VB.net has pretty much nothing to do with Basic at least for version with the .net after their name. It was more of a Microsoft marketing gimmick to add the basic part to the name, to mean it was an easy ...

A big hello from Beauharnois, Qc, Canada

Hi! I'm really excited to see this project getting near to release. I'd like to get one from the second batch. Not that I think anything will be wrong with the first batch (I don't want to jinx it <span><span class="ipsEmoji">?</span> ), but just that I want those that I've been coding and working ...
