The back cover of the book "De Re Atari" has something similar. There's a web version here:

 

http://www.atariarchives.org/dere/programmerscard.php

 

That page has the whole thing as HTML, and also scans of the original in GIF format. Very handy... Though I actually bought the book (B&C has them in stock, brand new).

I believe the Analog Computing Pocket Reference Card is what you want. Unfortunately I don't have a scanner and I can't find the Pocket Reference Card on the net.

 

The closest thing I can find is this page which the author claims was inspired by the same document.

Hello all,

 

I am searching for the Analog Computing Pocket Reference card.

 

After browsing the many issues of Analog Computing generously scanned in by ThumpNugget, I would like to find one, or one of the others that was advertised in Analog.

 

There is a Analog Pocket Reference available on eBay right now (Item number: 280204057539). The seller wants 24.99 + shipping, or best offer. I tried a best offer and they countered with a few dollars less than what they want originally.

 

Does anyone have this or any other type of crib sheet made up scanned in?

 

There were a few others out there, from Analog issue # 8, pgs 17 & 18, Tom Hudson reviews three of them.

 

Thanks!

Not too bad. This is something is just happened to stumble upon a while back. For some reason it's protected so you'll have to do a little work to print it out, if that's what you want.

I probably should get my old site back online somewhere again and update it a little Mosaic. Lol, those were the days!

Here it is without the silly PDF "protection": rob_funk_ref_man_unprotected_pdf.zip

 

Enjoy.

I've got a Plus/4 memory map which is done as multiple Excel worksheets by someone.

 

I think the ideal Reference would be just webpages which you could keep locally.

Have registers and memory maps with labels, and have them expandable to get the more complex description, breakdown of bit meanings etc.

Depends on the tools you prefer to use.

 

I have a local copy of Mapping the Atari I formatted as a vim help file, so when I'm editing Atari code, I can press ctrl-K on a known label or location and get a help sub-window for it. For 6502 asm mnemonic, ctrl-K takes me to the details (hex opcodes, addressing modes, and timing) for that mnemonic (taken from one of the many "opcodes.txt" type files out on the net)... If I need a list of all the labels, I load up my equates.inc in a vim buffer (it has all the labels with one-line short comments, and the ctrl-K thing then takes me to the long description from Mapping).

 

I did this because the overhead of task-switching away from the editor to the browser and back has too much mental overhead for me (the computer can do it fine, but the brain takes a while to catch up)... but it's completely useless for someone who hasn't been using vi for so long that it's imprinted in their neural pathways at a deep level. (Actually not *completely* useless, vim help files are still human-readable text, too)

 

The ideal reference would probably be to have all the information in a database, and have program(s) to spit out whatever format you need (HTML, vim help, UNIX man page, Windows .HLP, Excel, Extra-Enterprisey XML, whatever).
