Hi,

most ML monitor programs for the C64 seem to be 8 KB in size. Is there
any halfway usable alternative that fits in 4 KB or at most 6 KB? It
doesn't need that fancy up/down scrolling as the intended use would be
via a serial line. So, normal scrolling is there as newlines are
printed but backward scrolling is not available.

Also, it wouldn't have to be specifically for the C64 but that would
probably be easiest to port to the target platform for me. Available
routines for I/O would be reading and printing a character, nothing
more. There is no such thing as disk I/O and other such things. Simple
commands like A, D, C, T, I, M and G, *maybe* a number conversion
command (oct, hex, dec), would be enough, @ and other advanced commands
are not needed.

Is there such thing? Or is there a source for a monitor program which I
could adapt for my needs?
