The BASIC Compiler for Every Need and Every Program!
Tired of using those other BASIC compilers t h a t don't do the job for you? Is there a long list of valid
BASIC commands that they don't support? Or don't they compile to true 6502 machine language for
maximum speed? Or do you have to rewrite your whole BASIC program just to find out that it won't
run when compiled?
Announging
AM1S BARC COAPOUR
THEFIRST COMPLETE BASIC COMPILER FOR THE ATARI COMPUTERS THAT PRODUCES NATIVE 6502 CODE
r , o BASC ,
o
BASIC, as we all know, is an easy-to-use language for
oavilEI
ATARI computers. It's only disadvantage is that it's SLOW.
For some types of functions, it seems to take BASIC
GeLP
programs forever t o execute. We all k now that the fastest
language available is machine language, t he language
of ones and zeros. But don't worry! Now you don't have
to learn a whole new language just to have programs
execute wit h machine language speed.
The MMG BASIC COMPILER takes your BASIC program and
converts it to machine language for you. Furthermore, this
machine language program will autorun, simply by
naming it AUTORUN.SYS, putting it on a disk wit h the DOS
2.05 files on it, and turning on your computer with that
disk in your drive.
Wh a e . W R g D I J O L V d o q a
Using the AAMG BASIC COMPILER, you can program in
BASIC, t he same BASIC you already know, and get your
program up and running. Then the WAG BASIC COMPILER
will convert your BASIC program for you, producing
lightning-fast programs to rival those of the professionals.
Imagine moving a player from the t op of the screen t o
the bot t om in less than a second! Try that using other
compilers! Imagine what your programs will be like when
they're compiled to true 6502 machine language. The
MMG BASIC COMPILER has been used to produce
commercially available arcade-type games from BASIC
source code, and can do the same for you!
MMG would even be interested in marketing your results!
If you produce what you believe to be a marketable
program, call us for details!

your local computer store, or send $99. 95 plus $3.00 for shipping and handling to:
