I saw that other people had found that too. I guess it's been long enough that I can again recommend _The Beginners' Guide To Machine Language_ by Richard Mansfield. I can't find it anywhere online, but if you truly get desperate he emailed me once that I could "make a few copies [of my copy] for friends". Really is an excellent intro book to machine language, and is actually a quite fun read. Course you'd never know it was good as I've turned in very few working bins, and nothing close to a game. But it is. :) There was also a pretty good intro to 6510 (?) assembler from the _ COMMODORE 64 PROGRAMMER'S REFERENCE GUIDE_ (which has been recommended) that I put up on my site way back when. http://homepage.mac.com/mactari/mactari/6507.txt Might be an okay start, though the link to the whole of the book is no longer valid. I imagine the whole text is around somewhere. While I'm on the subject -- Piero, I was quite mistaken about Bruce Eckel's _Thinking in Java_. I was thinking of some other author. I've still not read TIJ (or TICPP), but was just last week again wondering if I could justify printing it out at work to read from the free download. ;^) Ruffin Bailey ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archives (includes files) at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/archives/ Unsub & more at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/
