CBM-Command is a disk manager for the Commodore 64 / Commodore 128 / Commodore VIC20 and Commodore C16 computers. It is written like Norton Commander or Midnight Commander, but is much simpler due to the target platforms. Both the C128/C64/VIC20/C16 have their own native version of the application.
Release Notes – Version 2.0 – 2011-03-17 – Final Release
This is the final release of CBM-Command Version 2.0. This version is intended to replace all prior versions you may have downloaded. Please see release notes for prior versions to get comprehensive list of changes.
New Features:
- (C64) Added double-buffering when displaying the directory in a panel. This eliminates the flickering that users were experiencing when scrolling through long directories.
Changes:
- (All Machines) Changed the algorithm for displaying the directory in a panel. This greatly speeds up the scrolling of long directories, especially on the C128.
Known Issues:

If you are interested in BASIC programming for the C-64, then you have probably used a BASIC Extension at some point. Most of us are familiar with Commodore’s Simons’ BASIC cartridge. Unfortunately, most of these extensions aren’t very useful.
Simons’ BASIC, for example, has a pretty lousy set of commands. Many of them are basically (pun) useless. It’s also a very confusing set of commands — there are no consistent conventions used, making it necessary to constantly refer to the manual.
Further, a program written with Simons’ BASIC can only be run on a C-64 with a Simons’ BASIC cartridge. Pretty limiting. DotBASIC Plus is similar to other extensions in one way: you get a lot of new commands (or DotCommands, of course) — over 100 so far. But that’s where the similarities end.

EasyProg is a program for the C64/C128. It is used to write (“burn”) cartridge image files (*.crt) onto an EasyFlash.
Version 1.5.0 – 02.02.2011:
- Fast loader for 1541, 1581, sd2iec and uIEC and compatible drives.
- Some speed optimizations.
- EAPI code for all EasyFlash variants integrated.
- Minor UI improvements.
- Detailed error reports, e.g. when flash memory is write protected.

Exomizer is a program that compresses files in a way that tries to be as efficient as possible but still allows them to be decompressed in environments where CPU speed and RAM are limited. For some popular 8-bit computers using 6502 compatible CPUs it can also generate executable files that decompress themselves in memory when run.
- 2011-01-22: Exomizer v2.0 released
Changes since the 2.0 beta 7 release:
- Fixed a bug in sfx decruncher setup where data was copied unnecessary.
- Added the i_line_number symbol to be able to change the default line number of the basic line of the sfx decruncher.
- Added various improvements and documentation of the desfx command.
A complete changelog is included in the zip file.

Algodancer 2 is a Commodore 64 demo by Algorithm. I love it because it reminds me a old Amiga Demo; State of the Art by Spaceball.
This a a single file C64 demonstration which demonstrates overlay/underlay vq with realtime in memory decompression and sprite plotting.

Release Notes – Version 2.0 Release Candidate – 2011-01-14
New Features:
- Whole Disk Copying – Hotkey = “O” – This will copy a whole disk from one like drive to another like drive (ie. 1541 to 1541, 1571 to 1571) and also will copy a 1541 to a 1571.
Changes:
Known Issues:
- Deleting batches of files with more than 30 files does not work as expected as only the first 30 files are deleted. This is because of the way that deleting files alters the disk directory which prevents looping over the whole directory and selectively deleting files. Unfortunately I see no way around this as it’s impossible to cache the names of all the files to delete without some kind of temporary storage. This issue will not stop the release of Version 2.0.

This is a new game for Commodore 64 developed by The New Dimension.
You are captain Steve Zappa, who has been transported to different star boads. Your mission is to clear all decks on each star ship from the crazy aliens that infest the ship.
Then hurry back to the computer console and teleport out of the star ship, and get back into your little space craft. You will then be taken aboard on to the next star ship, in which you have to complete each mission.

Data (De-Koder, Tropyx) has updated the Limon WAV player for Commodore 64. You need a REU interface (Commodore’s RAM Expansion Unit) for run this program, alternatively you can use the Vice Emulator or the interface Ultimate 1541 v2.0+

Contiki is a small, open source, highly portable, multitasking computer operating system developed for use on a number of memory-constrained networked systems ranging from 8-bit computers to embedded systems on microcontrollers, including sensor network motes.
The name Contiki comes from Thor Heyerdahl’s famous Kon-Tiki raft.
The Contiki 2.x contains only very little assembler coding and even less target-specific assembler coding. This allowed for easy porting to targets beside the C64 namely the C128 and Apple II. Porting to other cc65 targets wasn’t done due to missing Ethernet hardware.
The major changes are:
- Support of the Atari 8-bit machines with the ethernet cart described on http://www.atari8ethernet.com
- FTP client app (only download although UI suggests upload too)
- Twitter client with OAuth workaround (using SuperTweet.net)
- New high contrast color scheme for Contiki UI apps on the C64.
