04.005 I'd like to do some 'serious' Apple II programming. Where can I find a information about soft switches (i.e. "PEEKs & POKEs"), monitor routines, and standard names used for these?
You can find listings of Apple II soft switches and popular monitor
routines in a manual for your computer-- e.g. the Apple II Reference Manual
(for II and II+), the IIe Technical Reference Manual, the Apple IIgs Firmware
Reference Manual, etc..
An excellent guide to many PEEKs & POKEs and monitor routines is the
famous "Peeks, Pokes, and Pointers" poster from Beagle Bros (early 1980's). A
fairly exhaustive guide to important memory locations in the Apple II is What's
Where in the Apple II: An Atlas to the Apple Computer by William Luebbert
(1981).
For a good on-line listing of PEEKs, POKEs, pointers, and CALLs, see the
