I still write Atari Basic programs on my Atari 8-bit machines (although
most of the time, I am running an emulator on my PC in a Windows XP
virtual machine.)

I then compile the Basic programs using the MMG compiler so I can run
them from the SpartaDOS command-line.

Most of these programs are utilities like display drive info for 15
drives at a time, or scan floppies and HDDs for bad sectors, etc.

It's a hobby and I love it...
