Hello People

Does anybody have a PDF version of the "6502 Assembly Language Programming" book by Lance A. Leventhal?

I have that book in print form. I'm not sure how to go about getting it into PDF though. And I'm not 100% sure about legal issues...

Well, me neither but somehow I managed to use the old Google magic:

Maybe someone wants to upload this to a repository. I found it on RapidShare.

Great find! I have a printed version of this book and have been using it for years. IMO, it's the best reference source for the 6502 Assembly Language.

The first book I bought after getting my first Atari 400 was the 1979 edition:


It taught me all about assembly, interrupt handling, and I/O programming for the PIA.

Back in the day the Osborne books were THE authority on microprocessors, often more informative than the manufacturer's publications.

i have the '83 edition myself, where it has the '6502' at the top... used to have the '68000' book also...

both very good!

My book cover looks like this one. It says "Copyright 1979" inside the book. So, what year edition is the one with the blue/green cover (posting #8 ) from then?

This is a great book (I'm glad I went looking for it), but what I'd like to see is a guide to OOP on the 6502. Joel Goodwin wrote a great series on this very subject beginning in Issue 82 of New Atari User, which I've just rediscovered. He talks about encapsulation, polymorphism, inheritance, etc. Some of his ideas were definitely lingering in my mind when I started the GUI.
