Background

7th June 2020 - CBM prg Studio v3.14.0 released.Well it's been nearly two years since the last release (v3.13) of CBM prg Studio and so I'm really pleased to announce the release of version 3.14!There's a lot of new features and bug fixes in this version, and there's a huge thank you to OldSkoolCoder for encouraging me to get back into this project and also helping with the new Git integration feature.CBM prg Studio is a Windows IDE which allows you to type a BASIC or machine code program and convert it to a '.prg' file, which you can then run in an emulator or on real hardware. It also includes character, sprite and screen editors and a fully featured 6510/65816 debugger.The following machines can be developed for:What CBM prg Studiois a front-end for tok64, cbmcnvrt, bastext or any other tokeniser/detokeniser/assembler. It's all been written completely from scratch.Follow the download link for more details.Here are some features which I'm either working on or planning to:I'm open to suggestions if you have anything you would like adding to CBM Prg Studio, or change the way something works.Way back in the mists of time I was given a VB.NET project at work. I'm a C++/C# programmer by trade and I hadn't touched VB since version 3 (many years ago) so I was a bit rusty to say the least. Typically, I wasn't given any investigation time and was expected to just get on with it. I'm sure any programmers out there are familiar with that! Anyway, I was scrabbling about looking for a nice little project I could do in my own time to get me up to speed with VB.NET and at the same time I was into playing around with the various C64 emulators and tools, particularly tok64. That's how C64prgGen (CBM prg Studio's predecessor) came about really as I noticed that there weren't many (if any) code generation tools with a GUI front end. Admittedly I hadn't looked very hard though. CBM prg Studio is the result of 'merging' C64 and VIC20 PrgGens.
