Most of the program is written in C and I am selling it at the nominal cost of $35 which includes almost 50 pages of documentation. Recently, a local software "promoter" approached me with the idea of porting my program to the Commodore 64. He assures me that we'd sell millions of them. I am very naive about the Commodore line in general, not even knowing what their favorite processor is. I'm interested to know if o there's a demand for a good vt100 emulator, and what people would be willing to pay for it. o there are any good C compilers for the 64, and if there exist cross compilers from something like an IBM PC. o Commodore publishes enough information to write, for example, asynchronous port drivers and interrupt handlers (Can the 64 even be interrupt driven?) o Any other information that might be of interest to me. Thanks in advance for your responses.
