This is a all-in-1 utility for the EasyFlash 3 cartridge and its USB connection to the PC. The utility is precompiled for M$ Windows and Linux, Source are available.
Prerequisites:
- PC has installed Easyflash 3 USB driver. If not please get it from: https://bitbucket.org/skoe/easyflash/wiki/EF3InstallDriver
- PC and EF3 are connected using the USB cable.
- EF3 has jumpers set to “DATA” (down) mode.
Changelog from v1.4:
- Created a single “ef3usb.prg” and “ef3usb.exe” utility which includes all previous utilities in one single package.
- Speeded up the Turbo Reader a bit with reverse sector loading.
- Added 40 track support to D64 read and write (turbo version only!)
- Added turbo format command – 35 and 40 sectors. Curtesy of tlr’s “Format II” utility.
- “dir” and “copy” commands now also display the disk name and ID.
- “execute” command now also accepts .P00 files.

This Ethernet Cartridge will be used to connect a computer Atari 8-bit to internet.
Much of the work has already been done thanks to some very talented people in the Atari community. The hardware and software was originally developed by Chris Martin and tested by Mark Dusko. The software is based on the work already done in the Commodore 64 community, this adapter will allow you to take advantage of telnet, e-mail, web browsing and a web server via the Contiki Operating System and a Ciris Logic CS8900A ethernet controller chip.
The project is now open source and any help with the project is welcome and greatly appreciated. We are hoping with some help from the awesome Atari 8-bit community, we can make the 8-bit ethernet interface a reality!

C64 Studio is a .NET based IDE written by Georg Rottensteiner. This app supports project based C64 assembly.
The internal assembler is using the ACME syntax. In connection with Vice the IDE allows you to debug through your code and watch variables/memory locations, registers and memory.
Any other emulator can be set up as well if it’s startable via runtime arguments. C64 Studio allows you to compile to raw binary, .prg, .t64 or cartridge format (.bin and .crt for 8k and 16k). Additionally to this C64 Studio comes with a charset and sprite editor.
Version history:
11.02.2012 – 2.0:
- Added !endoffile macro.
- Allow umlauts in labels.
- Fixed tooltip flicker.

TRS-80 was Tandy Corporation’s desktop microcomputer model line, sold through Tandy’s Radio Shack stores in the late 1970s and early 1980s. The first units, ordered unseen, were delivered in November 1977, and rolled out to the stores the third week of December. The line won popularity with hobbyists, home users, and small-businesses.
Tandy Corporation’s leading position in what Byte Magazine called the “1977 Trinity” (Apple, Commodore and Tandy) had much to do with Tandy’s retailing the computer through more than 3000 of its Radio Shack (Tandy in Europe) storefronts.
The Model 4 shipped with TRSDOS 6, an enhanced version of LDOS by Logical Systems and a vastly superior operating system to Tandy’s earlier TRSDOS offerings. When the Model 4 booted into TRSDOS 6 the video display switched into 80×24 mode and the entire 64KB address space was mapped as RAM. The Model 4 was also capable of running all Model 3 software when a Model 3 operating system disk was detected and loaded during bootup with a 64×16 video mode and Model 3 ROMs mapped from address zero.
TRS-80 Model 4P.
The Model 4 also had the ability to display 640×240 or 512×192 high-resolution monochrome graphics with an optional board. A “luggable” version known as the Model 4P (1983) was a self-contained unit with a case design similar to that of a portable sewing machine.
Early versions of the Model 4 mainboard were designed to accept a Zilog Z8000 16 bit CPU upgrade board to replace the Z80 8 bit CPU but this option was never released.
