Apple I BASIC as a Mac OS X Scripting Language

¹

That article has a native Commodore 64 BASIC for OSX! The subtitle of the blog says it all: “It’s all about Assembly.” This is not a rewrite of the ROM – “My static recompiler takes the […] binary as an input and produces a native executable. This file does not contain the original 6502 code and runs 100% natively.”

This is… uh… wow!!

When I tried it, however:

Pyrobombus:~/Desktop alex$ ./cbmbasic
Bus error

Wouldn’t it be cool if we could run *Kaiser* in a Mac terminal?
