Exmon 64 is a machine code utility for the C64. It comes in a smart package with the statement "a full user manual is included..." The six page manual only gives a brief description of each command. The manual won't teach you how to program in the 6510 machine code, a prior knowledge is required in order to use this utility.

The utility is fairly easy to use providing a black background with white lettering. However, I felt the extra commands required to edit the machine code, add an unnecessary complication to the process of changing instructions.

The use of the transfer command is incomplete without a relocation command, but it is possible to read, edit and write a block to disc. This is useful when trying to recover data on the 1541 disc. Another useful function is the ability to call the registers and change them directly.

In all Exmon 64 will enable the user to write machine code programs in a limited way and has a good set of disc maintenance commands.
