It was designed way back when the Apple II was designed. It used the first 32 (?) bytes of zero page memory as a set of sixteen 16-bit registers. Real hacker stuff. There was an article in Byte magazine about Sweet-16, and I think the same article was reprinted with the original Merlin (Southwestern Data Systems) documentation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Howard C.

I have a really old version of Merlin (pre Apple //e) that has a fairly long section on Sweet 16. It's really too long to post but if you would like me to email you a copy, send me mail and I'll send you the Sweet 16 stuff. It consists of an introduction to Sweet 16 by Dick Sedgewick and then a long description of Sweet 16 by Steve Wozniak. The intro goes over how to use Sweet 16 and has some examples using Integer Basic (I said it was old). Anyway, that's about it... Sheldon Simms ccasts2@prism.gatech.edu

A few of you who requested Sweet16 intros (specifically logon names: quack and geary), When I save your mail message I was unaware that the file system was full, so I lost the addresses to send to. If you could request again, I would appreciate it. Also, anyone else who didn't see the first message, If you are interested in Sweet 16 but have no documentation, I have an intro and a description that I would be happy to send you.

This is of interest to all those interested about Sweet 16. All others can skip to the next article. Many years ago I clipped out and mad a booklet from the original BYTE article "Sweet 16 - The 6502 Dream Machine" by none other than Stephen Wozniak. Now the reason for this posting. Since I'm selling my Apple //c, soft- ware, books and magazines. I might as well get rid of this also. Interested? Call or E-mail me an its yours.
