# Sample programs

The directory "64prgs" contains some little sample programs to show the capabilities of Frodo/Frodo SC. Except for "dadb" and "lrborder" they are all loaded with `LOAD"<name>",8,1` and started with `SYS49152`. To do so, you have to set "Drive 8" in the settings to "Dir" and set the path to '64prgs' so Frodo will find the programs.

The programs were written by Pasi Ojala, Marko Mäkelä, Andreas Boose and me. If you like, you can try them on other emulators or on a real C64.

A short description of each program:

#### 3fff

Opens the top and bottom border and displays swinging letters ("Cycles per line (CPU)" should be set to 60 for this one)

#### colorbars

Flickering colors

#### d011h3

8-way soft scrolling without moving a single byte in memory (cursor keys to scroll left/right, 't' for text mode, 'g' for bitmap mode), requires Frodo SC

#### dadb

A program running in the color RAM (press space), requires Frodo SC

#### de00all

A program running in the address space $de00-$dfff (press space), requires Frodo SC

#### dycp

Scrolling with different Y character position

#### fld

Demonstrates the FLD effect (flexible line distance)

#### lrborder

Opens the left/right border, requires Frodo SC

#### sprsync

Stable raster routine by synchronizing with a sprite, requires Frodo SC

#### stretch

Variably expanded sprites, requires Frodo SC

#### tech-tech

Horizontal scrolling with large amplitude (use joystick in port 2 to control)

#### text26
