This is the iDOC= home page. The goal of iDOC= is to preserve non-English Commodore related documents in electronic text format that might otherwise cease to exist with the rapid advancement of computer technology and declining interest in 8-bit computers on the part of the general population. If you would like to help by converting Commodore related hardcopy documents to electronic texts please contact the manager of iDOC=, Mike Naberezny at mike@naberezny.com.

Extensive efforts were made to preserve the contents of the original document. However, certain portions, such as diagrams, program listings, and indexes may have been either altered or sacrificed due to the limitations of plain vanilla text. Diagrams may have been eliminated where ASCII-art was not feasible. Program listings may be missing display codes where substitutions were not possible. Tables of contents and indexes may have been changed from page number references to section number references. Please accept our apologies for these limitations, alterations and possible omissions.

All documents are written using the ISO 8859-1 character set, unless otherwise noted. If you are having problems reading these files under DOS or OS/2, iso2dos might be able to help you.

To make it easier to convert the textual listings available in the e-texts back to Commodore BASIC format, I have developed a small utitily called bastext. It will convert the listings to Commodore binary format, or to T64 archives, ready for transfer to a Commodore computer. The program is written to be compatible with tok64.
