Introduction

Wanting to start sizecoding on a 6502 platform in this day and age can be tough.

So here is a bit of help to get you started:

The 6502 processor

The 6502 processor can be seen as the 8-bit micro ARM chip. It has only has 3 registers (Accumulator, X and Y registers) and a handful of instructions to work with.

Adressing modes

-=== Program file overhead ===
-A standard CBM file consists of a 2 byte loading address followed by the data that is placed into memory starting at this address. In addition, if your machine program should be able to be started with "RUN", you need a BASIC stub that is loaded into memory from $0801 to $080c, typically followed by your machine program:
-<syntaxhighlight lang="6502">
-*=$0801
-        .word $080b   ;address of next BASIC line
-        .word LINENR  ;line number, can be chosen between 0 and 63999
-        .byte $9e     ;token for SYS command
-        .byte $32,$30,$36,$31  ;address to jump to in ASCII code: "2061"
-        .byte $00     ;end of BASIC line
-        .word $0000   ;address of next BASIC line, $0000 means end of BASIC program
-start
-; your code here
-</syntaxhighlight>
-Together with the 2 byte load address, this makes an overhead of 14 byte for your program. To reduce this, you can
-* omit the BASIC line and tell users to start your program by directly entering "SYS ''address''"
-* save your program from $0802 on, the byte at $0801 is recovered automatically after loading by the relink function. This reduces your program file size by 1 byte
-* accept the loss and use the 2 byte establishing LINENR for something good, they are copied to zeropage addresses $39/$3a automatically, saving you the effort of initializing the addresses
-* use an autostart method (see below)
-Some compos also specify that the BASIC loader does not count towards the overall filesize, check the rules before you worry.
-=== Autostart ===
-Unlike the Commodore 128, the Commodore 64 has no dedicated built-in auto-boot feature, but it is possible to autorun a program after loading by specifying the load address so that it overwrites a vector or address that is called by the operating system. There are multiple possibilities:
-==== Overwriting  CHROUT vector at $326-$327 ====
-The vector at address $326-$327 points at the CHROUT routine, normally at address $F1CA.
-If you put the entry address of your program into $326/27, your code will be called when the operating system wants to print "READY." after loading.
-Note that the vector at address $328-$329 points at the STOP routine that checks the status of Stop key indicator. Since this routine is called multiple times before your code is done loading, its default value $F6ED needs to be preserved.
-Application example:
-<syntaxhighlight lang="6502">
-*=$0326
-        .word start
-        .byte $ed,$f6
-start
-; rest of code
-</syntaxhighlight>
-Together with the two byte load address, the overwritten CHROUT vector and the preserved STOP vector, your program file will have a deadweight of 6 byte: $26 $03 $0a $03 $ed $f6, less than half of the standard version with a BASIC stub with SYS
-Caveat:
-* If your program after $32a is longer than 214 byte, part of your program will load into the screen at $400. Thus, issuing a clear screen will overwrite your program. It is possible to move the screen memory somewhere else, but that requires storing a new value into address $D018, which when done with an LDA # / STA pair will cost you 5 byte
-* Since you changed the CHROUT pointer, standard KERNAL functions for printing won't work. For output of single characters, you can still use the direct address $F1CA. Alternatively, you can restore the vectors by calling $FD15, which will overwrite the memory $314 to $333 with the default values.
-==== Overwriting BASIC idle loop vector at $302-$303 ====
-After loading the program, the BASIC idle loop will be called. By overwriting the vector at $302/$303 it is possible to autostart your program. Since the memory before $302 can be safely overwritten, the program would be arranged so that $303 is the '''last''' address of your program. If your program requires a loop back to the start, the vector can be used as part of a JMP where the following two bytes are already there, saving one byte in comparison to a loop done with a branch command.
-Application example:
-<syntaxhighlight lang="6502">
-*=$304 - (end - start)
-start:
-        ;your code here
-        ; ...
-        jmp     start    ;the address for start lies in $302/$303, thus will be called by the Kernal after loading
-end:
-</syntaxhighlight>
-In cases where the vector has a practical use, the overhead in filesize is only the 2 byte loading address. For programs larger than 93 byte keep in mind that addresses before $2A7 are in use by the Kernal.
-==== Overwriting return address on stack at $1F8 ====
-When the load routine is called, the stack pointer is always at $FA at a stock C64. Thus the return address from the loading process is stored in memory address $F8 (low byte) and $F9 (high byte). During the loading routine, stack usage will clobber the stack below $1F8, but a program loaded to $1F8 and above will be fine and the overwritten address stored at $1F8/$1F9 will be called after loading.
-Application example:
-<syntaxhighlight lang="6502">
-*=$1F8
-        .word start-1   ;adjust for the RTS command pulling the address from stack and increasing it by 1
-start:
-        ;your code here
-</syntaxhighlight>
-For programs larger than 95 byte keep in mind that addresses after $259 are in use by the Kernal, you might overwrite some values here if you don't have disk operations, but better check the memory map beforehand.
-Together with the two byte load address and the overwritten address at $1F8/$1F9, your program file will have a deadweight of 4 byte when using this method.
-=== Video display ===
-Video display on the Commodore has the following video modes:
-* Standard text mode, 40x25 characters, 1 individual color per character, 1 common background color
-* Multicolor text mode, 40x25 characters, every two bits (fat pixel) define color: background, char, common color 1+2
-* Extended color text mode, 40x25 characters, 1 individual foreground color per character, 1 out of 4 background colors, only 64 chars
-* Hires bitmap, 320x200 pixels, an 8x8 field can have an individual foreground and an individual background color
-* Multicolor bitmap, 160x200 pixels, every two bits (fat pixel) define color: background, screen color lower nibble, screen color higher nibble, color from color RAM
-==== Getting something on screen ====
-Output a character:
-<syntaxhighlight lang="6502">
-        lda     #C       ;C must be the char code according to the PETSCII code table
-        jsr     $FFD2    ;you can also use the direct address $FC1A, function preserves A,X,Y and enables interrupt
-</syntaxhighlight>
-Since the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PETSCII#Character_set PETSCII code table] contains also control characters, this method can be also used to clear the screen, move the cursor or set the text color. However, some functions are shorter (and faster) by directly calling the respective KERNAL function:
-<syntaxhighlight lang="6502">
-Clear screen             JSR $E544
-Cursor home position     JSR $E566
-Output newline character JSR $AAD7
-Set text color           LDA #COLOR, STA $286
-Set border color         LDA #COLOR, STA $D020   ;not possible with a PETSCII control code
-Set background color     LDA #COLOR, STA $D021   ;not possible with a PETSCII control code
-</syntaxhighlight>
-Copy characters directly to screen memory:
-<syntaxhighlight lang="6502">
-.macpack cbm   ;scrcode macro
-SCREEN_BASE=$400
-LINE=5    ;for example
-COLUMN=10 ;for example
-        ldx     #endtext-text-1
-@loop:  lda     text,x
-        sta     SCREEN_BASE+LINE*40+COLUMN,x
-        dex
-        bpl     @loop
-text:   scrcode "hello world!"
-endtext:
-</syntaxhighlight>
-Note that the text needs to be stored in '''screen code''' format, not in PETSCII (see [https://sta.c64.org/cbm64pettoscr.html Commodore 64 PETSCII code to screen code conversion] for the differences). Furthermore, the example above only writes to the screen memory, not the color RAM, assuming that the color RAM already contains the intended text color. This is the case after issuing a clear screen on most C64 machines, except for some old ROM revisions. To be on the save side you would have to write to color RAM as well, which costs another 5 byte:
-<syntaxhighlight lang="6502">
-.macpack cbm     ;scrcode macro
-SCREEN_BASE=$400
-COLOR_RAM  =$D800
-LINE       =5    ;for example
-COLUMN     =10   ;for example
-COLOR      =1    ;white
-        ldx     #endtext-text-1
-@loop:  lda     text,x
-        sta     SCREEN_BASE+LINE*40+COLUMN,x
-        lda     #COLOR
-        sta     COLOR_RAM  +LINE*40+COLUMN,x
-        dex
-        bpl     @loop
-text:   scrcode "hello world!"
-endtext:

-https://archive.org/details/HiRes_Color_Graphics_on_the_Apple_II_Computer_by_Wozniak
-However for sizecoding, you almost never want to do direct-access to graphics for Apple II in size-coding because the Apple II graphics modes are horrible.  The only fast way to do things is with large lookup tables.  To do hires you need to divide by 7 which as you can imagine is a bit difficult to do compactly on 6502. Double-hires is even crazier on top of that.  Deater did manage a color-bar style effect in double-hires in 128B but that was doing some crazy tricks with the firmware BASIC routines, definitely not direct-access.
-Lores and Hires can be mixed modes and full-graphics
-The screen structure is called memory holes(https://retrocomputing.stackexchange.com/questions/2534/what-are-the-screen-holes-in-apple-ii-graphics). The GBASCALC($F847) procedure is used to calculate the address of the horizontal line : IN:reg.A=Y, out : GBASL/GBASH($26/$27)=address.
