- Hi!
-
- Just got back from the guy I bought my PET from, and he located all the
- MANUALS for me!
-
- I've got everything... including the Commodore manuals for the 8032,
- Basic 4.0, 4022 Printer, 8050 drive (its for a bunch of drives really),
- and the 8010 modem!
-
- I also found a manual for one of those EPROMS I was trying to figure
- out. Turns out the thing is entitled:
- "COMMAND..0" (by Skyles), and is an EPROM that seats in UD3 on a
- 4000 or UD12 on an 8000. If you type SYS36864, it turns the thing on an
- gives you a few more BASIC commands. (like auto line numbering, merge
- commands, BEEP, Execute, etc). Pretty cool!
-
- I also got a bunch of books dealing with BASIC, and documentations for
- the following software packages (haven't located all the disks yet
- though):
- FONTRIX, VERSICALC, WordPro 4, Jinsam
-
- Also located the manual, installation instructions, and programming
- instructions on the 64k MEMORY EXPANSION board. Turns out it was a "kit"
- after all... I have everything except the "TEST" disk that came with
- it. But at any rate, I've got the whole box and all (shipped direct from
- Commodore on 3/82!)
-
- Needless to say... I'm a happy camper right now. I'd like to stick some
- of this info online (maybe on a web page) some day for others to see.
- Some impressive stuff, IMHO. PET documentation seems to be quite hard to
- find anymore, too!
-
- TTFN...
