M-III Plus Stanley Kendall Arcadian, Vol. 3, Pg. 45 The letter that Mike White sent with this tape says, "MIII Plus is the entire 3rd issue of Arcadian, Vol. 5 in one program." However, there only appears to be one program here. (the issue only has ONE program, but Mike goes on to name several authors). MIII Plus is an expanded version of the program MIII printed in the Arcadian.
Memory Contents - Binary Max Manowski ARCADIAN, 1, no. 6 (May 1979): 43 Machine Language Utiltiy for BASIC. This program takes a decical number as memory location for input, then prints out the input number, followed by the contents of the memory location in AstroBASIC decical format, then the program prints out the contents of the memory location in binary format (also in AstroBASIC format). Since AstroBASIC PEEKs at locations two bytes at a time, the binary output will be 16 bits. Finally, the output will be in hex pair, reverse order (i.e. $FF00 = $00FF).
Memory Contents - Hex Gary Moser ARCADIAN, 1, no. 6 (May 1979): 44 Machine Language Utiltiy for BASIC. This program takes a decimal beginning memory address and an decimal ending memory address and then prints out the hex pairs. The output is NOT in AstroBASIC format- the hex pairs are in the correct order.
Memory Display Chuck Thomka ARCADIAN, 1, no. 8 (July 1979): 67 Machine Language Utiltiy for BASIC. This program displays input memory locations in both Hexadecimal format (with hex pairs in reverse order) and Bally BASIC decimal format.
Microtrek Bill Andrus Arcadian, Vol. 1, Pg. 88 and 89, Arcadian, Vol. 2, Pg. 4 (Corrections and suggestions by Bill Templeton) I'm not sure if this version has corrections and suggestions added. An "extended version" of the free listing was available on tape from the author.
