This is a collection of simple examples of 6502 code which will run in the emulator.
Contents
Fill the Bitmapped Display
lda #$00 ; set pointer at $10 to $0200
sta $10
lda #$02
sta $11
ldx #$06 ; max value for $11
ldy #$00 ; index
loop: sta ($10),y ; store colour
iny ; increment index
bne loop ; branch until overflow
inc $11 ; increment hi byte of pointer
lda $11 ; load page number as colour
cpx $11 ; compare with max value
bne loop ; continue if not done
rts ; return
Place a Message on the Character Display
define SCREEN $f000
ldy #$00

beq done
sta SCREEN,y
iny
bne char
con e: brk
text:
dcb "6","5","0","2",32,"w","a","s",32,"h","e","r","e",".",00
Type on the Screen
; let the user type on the first page of character screen
; has blinking cursor!
; backspace works (non-destructive), arrows/ENTER don't
next: ldx #$00

Place a Graphic on the Screen
