PET Game Patches for Business Keyboards

What is this?

As the keyboard hardware differs between different models of Commodore PET, sofware written for the original "Graphics keyboard" might not work properly - or at all - with "Business keyboard"-PET. This repository contains binary patches so you can modify your existing files so that they will then work with business keyboards.

How does it work?

To apply a patch, follow the following simple steps:

  1. First check that the game file you have is suitable for the patch by verifying that you have the same checksum as what's listed in the table below:
$ md5sum afo\ with\ sound.prg 
22e85348d279c60d7a83deefcbf04b85afo with sound.prg
  1. Then apply the patch with bspatch to generate a new file:
$ bspatch afo\ with\ sound.prg afo.prg afo\ with\ sound.bsdiff
