2068 Disassembler and Monitor

Program

A full Z80 disassembler and machine code monitor that decodes every opcode prefix, supports symbol tables loaded from tape, and outputs to screen or printer.

3-D

Program

Draw freehand curves in 3D space with six-direction keyboard control, then replay or randomize your sketches with a perspective projection engine built entirely in BASIC.

Attr Table

Program

A handy on-screen reference table renders all 64 paper and ink color combinations, showing their attribute byte values styled in the actual colors they represent.

Battle

Program

A board game where you and the computer trade diagonal captures on a block-graphic grid — enter coordinates to move, and race to six captures first.

Beethoven

Program

A full choral arrangement of "Ode to Joy" plays syllable by syllable, with melody, named chord accompaniment, and pitch-proportional lyric positioning all driven from a single DATA loop.

Binary

Program

Watch each bit light up in color as this educational tool converts any decimal number from 0 to 255 into its 8-bit binary representation, with an animated auto-demo mode.

Bio-Graph

Program

Enter your birthday and a target month to watch three sinusoidal biorhythm curves — Physical, Sensitivity, and Intellectual — plotted live across the screen.

Caloriburn

Program

Enter an activity number and exercise duration to instantly calculate calories burned and the equivalent weight loss in both kilograms and pounds.

Cassette Label

Program

Enter two tape titles and this program prints a ready-to-fold cassette case label complete with cut lines, fold guides, and fitting instructions.

Chordizer

Program

A chord library that wraps plain BEEP melodies in full three-voice triads using raw sound-chip register values — transcribe sheet music with harmony in minutes.

Copycat

Program

A tape copier and Z80 assembler in one package — copy tapes with or without headers, and assemble Z80 machine code with full instruction set support, symbol table, and forward reference resolution.

Endless Love

Program

A three-channel chip music rendition of "Endless Love" plays syllable by syllable, each word paired with chord voicings and precise beat durations stored in DATA statements.

Espanola

Program

A four-song Latin music medley — Granada, Perfidia, Brazil, and Solamente Una Vez — plays melody and live chord accompaniment simultaneously from a menu-driven BASIC program.

Evergreen

Program

A BASIC rendition of "Evergreen" that synchronizes scrolling lyrics with melody and live three-voice chord accompaniment using AY sound chip register programming.

FILE 1

Program

A complete menu-driven database system lets you design custom record layouts, sort, search, edit, and archive data to tape using embedded machine code routines.

Merge 1

Program

A tape-based mail-merge utility uses an embedded machine code block-copy routine to assemble personalized letters from a template and data file.

Mortgage

Program

A three-mode mortgage calculator that computes monthly payments, maximum home prices, and affordability checks from income — all built around shared BASIC subroutines.

Multi Tape

Program

A tape cataloging utility that POKEs machine code to read raw cassette headers and stores up to 400 program entries across searchable arrays.

MULTIFILE+

Program

A full-featured string database manager with Quicksort, multi-field search, record deletion, and tape save — all packed into a single BASIC program.

Nightfall

Program

Guide your craft through a torrential rainfall, dropping bombs and dodging collisions in this arcade game that uses custom graphics and display-file collision detection.

Sound Effects

Program

A six-option sound demo lets you trigger bomb, gunshot, and explosion effects, play "America the Beautiful," or perform on a fully interactive on-screen piano keyboard.

Star Blast

Program

Blast scrolling star fields with a custom-drawn cannon in this joystick-controlled space shooter that gets faster and more crowded with every wave.

Streams and Channels

Program

Peek inside the streams and channels tables live in RAM — this diagnostic tool decodes every address, routine pointer, and device specifier byte on screen.

The Rose

Program

A fully data-driven BASIC program plays "The Rose" note by note, synchronizing split syllable lyrics with three-voice harmony chords from the AY sound chip.

Varslist

Program

A 173-byte machine code utility reveals every BASIC variable currently in memory — just call it with RANDOMIZE USR to inspect your program's state.

W5GAA Clock

Program

A precision UTC digital clock that encodes the current time directly in BASIC loop counters, using block-graphic digits and carefully tuned BEEP durations to keep accurate time.

Note: Type-in program listings on this website use ZMAKEBAS notation for graphics characters.
