    Hello

    I just released a new demo at the Demosplash conference.
    http://deater.net/weave/vmwprod/botdemo/
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iVDgdfKe9eQ
    It's made up of a bunch of my 280-char twitter applbot demos with some Mockingboard music playing in the background.

    It was actually more complicated than I thought it would be to call into
    the LIST and similar Applesoft routines as they tend to hard-jump back
    to the input parser rather than RTSing back at the end.

    Unlike my other demos this one targets the Apple IIe as it has some double-hires and lowercase. You also will need a Mockingboard in slot#4
    as it in timer interrupt driven.

    Very cool demos! I like the music, too.

    Is there an easy way to manually run the Applesoft demos one at a time?

    If you visit the AppleBot Twitter account, you can find them there right now. Otherwise, we'll have to wait for a release from Deater.

    I tried looking at twitter.com/appleiibot, but I don't see the code there either. For instance, at https://twitter.com/AppleIIBot/status/1312603709969326080 it's just the
    video of it running.

    I don't have a twitter account (and don't want one).

    I don't have a twitter account either but when I go to the link you
    provided the code is above the running demo (in Deater's tweet).

    Right. The video is in response to the tweet that contains the code, so if you view the tweet then you can copy it out.
    No need for an account.

    the raw basic programs are also available on github:
    https://github.com/deater/dos33fsprogs/tree/master/appleiibot
    there's also an appleiibot.dsk image in that directory if you want
    to use that instead.
