One finds the best stuff at thrift stores. Check out what I found today:
The Anatomy of the 1541 Disk Drive
By Abacus Software, 1984
ISBN: 0-916439-01-1
It contains a full description of the file system, the file structure, the
file commands, and also has a full 6502 assembler listing for the drive's
ROM! Very cool. This book apparently also came with a "Test/Demo" disk
but the programs are printed in the book so they can be duplicated. What
a treasure.
