The 6510 was based on the same instruction set, but had minor differences (which I don't remember). The _Programmer's_Reference_Guide_ published my Commodore had about half of its pages dedicated to ML, the opcodes, clock cycles, chip data, pinouts, and a big (suitable for framing) schematic in the back. -Dave -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kappa Xi Kappa - Over & Above! dcg5662@hertz.njit.edu 9 Sussex Ave., Newark, NJ (car theft capital USA) 70721.2222@compuserve.com
