Woah, I’m so stoked. $200. Did I pay too much? I don’t think so. Apple ][s !

2 x Apple IIe computers.
2 x Apple II Europlus computers. One without a lid.
2 x Apple II CRT. Original.
9 x Apple II floppy drives. 6 with Apple logos and 3 x look generic.

I spent the weekend programming my #AgonLight and reminded myself how to code in C, using AgDev to port a text Minefield game. The challenge this time was both getopt.h and the curses library were missing. This became the real project. I now have a rudimentary starting point for an Agon #curses library, & a longer-term project to increase speed and features. Even with minor bugs, it's both a code example and an enjoyable timewaster #retrogaming #retrocompiting Download: https://github.com/sijnstra/agdev-projects

Am I alone in being interested in understanding / reverse engineering #retrocompiting software OTHER THAN games?

If I'm not alone, what stuff would you want to see migrated to maintainable #mos6502 #assembly code, probably #ca65 , and MAYBE ported to the #commanderx16 or the #mega65.

Besides #retrocompiting and the occasional #firmware update for a #networking or #iot device, where do you see old school #ftp still being used? Not TFTP, #FTPS, or SCP but true FTP?

Shot in the dark: Has anyone ever seen a computing-related print ad from before 2000 that references stealing in any way?

Ideally, something that one might find in a computer store.
