TomC Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Perhaps this is obvious to most, but I cannot find any references/details. 'What is Reverse BASIC for the Atari 800 series? Thank you, TomC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rybags Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Not a product, just an OS behaviour. Normally you press Option on startup to disable Basic, reverse Basic just means the default is to boot with no Basic and you hold Option to enable it. This can be done by installing an Eprom or multi-OS upgrade with a suitably modified OS on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xrbrevin Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 just for the record, there is a misnomer in the OP's question. Reverse basic is for 600/800XL and XE models only - option key is not used for the 400/800 models because basic is not built-in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
