The emulator is called Hi65 and uses an HLE approach to execute BASIC 10 instructions directly.

As a result, its much faster than both the original machine and MESS (the only other program that emulates the Commodore 65).

The third demo will not run on my emulator due to the same limitation (for now, it can only interpret expressions with a single operator), so I (or whoever wants to run it) would need to modify it accordingly.

Note that BASIC 10 programs need to be tokenized in order to be run on Hi65, but if you have Windows and you use the launch tool, the procedure should be self-explanatory.

The only complaint I would have is that the welcome message is modified.

It would be much better to use the default text from the kernal.

When compared to PAL, NTSC color accuracy and consistency is sometimes considered inferior, leading to video professionals and television engineers jokingly referring to NTSC as Never The Same Color, Never Twice the Same Color, or No True Skin Colors.

The main program has a couple of bugfixes relating to the configuration and the PRINT function, and now it includes a new frontend (Hi65 Edit and Launch Tool) that makes it much easier to write, tokenize and run a BASIC 10 program.

As a bonus, if you copy the frontend and its icons to your VICE directory, you will be able to choose alternative versions of Commodore BASIC and run the program in the the appropriate VICE executable.

The Windows frontend has also been improved, I discovered and removed a bug that affected Hi65 if used with unsaved programs, and now its also easier to use the frontend with VICE.

Im sure this emulator (and the other one) is as close to anything to the real 65, with progressive improvements along the way.
