THE HACKER'S VIEW OF THE COMMODORE 64

ICU64 for Frodo Redpill v0.1.5 - Released

Eventually, after 3 years, a new version of ICU64 is ready for download. Several bugs and issues have fixed, additional functionality and features have added. Note however, that this version is not the one that I was working on the last years (i.e. v0.2). This is only an update of the initial release, where I have paste as much code as I could from v0.2 without corrupting the functionality. My goal is to make the raster view equally significant with the memory (matrix) view, so the development is being continued...

Report any bug/issue/request in the comments or via e-mail.

Good hack!

Release Delay

Unfortunately, the cleanup task of the Frodo Redpill source code was underestimated. More time is needed before it's released. Also, the changes have effects to the ICU64, which has a GREAT progress these days, after a year of suspension.

The pending releases are:
- a great new version of ICU64 / Frodo Redpill
- the source code of Frodo Redpill
- sample code (C++/C#/Mathematica) that handles Frodo Redpill

I'll try to make them available as soon as possible and, in any case, before the 2011.

My apology to all those who follow this project
and they were waiting for a new release now,

Interview in Commodore Free Magazine

The Commodore Free Magazine is a free electronic magazine dedicated to the Commodore. Some days ago, Nigel Parker (the editor) asked me for an interview about my project. So if anyone looks for information about the ICU64, they can be found on the current issue (Issue 37).

I would like to thank Nigel Parker for his questions because they really pushed me to think some things better. Also I want to thank him for his patience because my text was full of spelling errors and several corrections had to be made.

Any comment or question after reading the interview is welcome.
