I bought a box of Commodore books. After having a look at the unusual postage (my dad's a philatelist, eh?) we take a look through the box contents, and then focus on two books in particular. They're the Tool Kit series by Dan Heeb, which are very in-depth looks through the BASIC and KERNAL ROMs, with a focus on making use of these routines in our own machine language programs for both the Commodore 64 and VIC-20. This video was originally the Patreon exclusive for May 2021.
