- 3\$\begingroup\$ Nice. Not specific to Commodore 64, probably works as is on almost every 8-bit BASIC machine from the 80's... \$\endgroup\$ysap– ysap2014-06-05 22:56:34 +00:00Commented Jun 5, 2014 at 22:56
- 1\$\begingroup\$ You could OLD or O. it back too. I new'd 12 months of 12 year olds game coding genius ;p work by accident once. Then accidentally saved instead of old-ing. O. didnt work anymore :( I did learn how hex editors worked pretty sharpish though :) \$\endgroup\$Matt Warren– Matt Warren2014-06-08 22:42:04 +00:00Commented Jun 8, 2014 at 22:42

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. code-golf), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
