From the Wikipedia [1] page: Programs are restricted to 64 characters in size and normally 9 lines of code, limiting the programs that can be written (users can disable all windows except Program and keep selecting "New Line" until 11 lines of code are present). Is there a special class of code golfing for the 2600? :) [1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BASIC_Programming#Details https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BASIC_Programming#Details
