In 1977, Commodore licensed BASIC for $25,000 as a one-time payment, securing perpetual use without royalties.

This simple bash script, named 'assemble,' streamlines the process of assembling and compiling assembly code for your host platform using NASM (Netwide Assembler) and GCC (GNU Compiler Collection).

If you've done some programming on an original Commodore 64, it's basically that one.
