Experimenter Board
This PCB breaks out the pins in the 2x20 expansion port on the CMM2 with particular emphasis on the ports: COM1 & 2, SPI & SPI2, I2C & I2C2. Eleven individual pins are brought out to 3-pin headers (0V, 3V3, and signal) as suited to the "37 sensors" type kits. More information and links to the EagleCad gerber and .sch and .pcb files are here.
That site also provides an MMBasic program which exercises most of the pins.
The gerber zip file can be sent directly to JLCPCB.com. Five PCBs can be ordered for $2US--probably $10 or so with shipping.

Enigma simulator
Enigma simulator
The Enigma Machine was the famous mechanical encryption/decryption machine used by the German military in WWII. It was advanced for its day, and if used correctly would have been unbreakable. A combination of operator errors, good luck, and outstanding mathematical skill by British, Polish, and French cryptanalysts, most notably Alan Turing, led to the breaking of many of the Enigma messages, which helped to shorten WWII and facilitate an eventual Allied victory.
This program is an accurate simulation of the Enigma Machine, and lets users set up the rotors, reflectors, and plugboards exactly the way the real Enigma would have been set up. Messages can then be encrypted and decrypted exactly the way they would have been on the real Enigma.
Substantial Help is included in the program.

March, 2021 was the month of the (perhaps first) Maximite One Page Programming challenge. The essential rule was, create the most amazing program possible using just a single built-in editor page of source text. Loosely modeled after the long running BASIC 10-Liner Competition, a full editor page was chosen to enable the creation of really polished programs.
I quickly whipped up as close a clone as possible of the classic Space Invaders, which fit comfortably within the size limit of 48 lines of 100 characters in the CMM2 editor. For silliness, I chose the name In Defence of the Green Hills of Earth. I decided to keep going and created a Missile Command clone, titled In Renewed Defence of the Green Hills. But why stop there? For my pièce de résistance, I was able to compress an eight level 3-D maze program into a single page. Escape to the Green Hills was my actual contest entry and was worth third place! Awesome!

The usual file navigation with cursors keys, page up&down, home, end, etc. should work as expected. Hexedit is a full-screen console-only editor. I does not work over serial, sorry. The file to edit can be passed in as a command line argument. Press F1 to get help on key bindings.

In February 2021 a giant tabular iceberg named A-48 calved from Antarctica’s Larsen C ice shelf and started to drift to open waters. You are member of an expedition intended to sample the marine life at the A-48 cleavage line and therefore entered the the gap between the iceberg and the main shelf on an agile but fragile little speedboat. You are far too busy with your research to notice the motion of the iceberg changed with it now drifting back to the shelf, closing the gap at alarming speed. When you realize the danger, you propel your boats engines to highspeed, desperately trying to escape the fate of being crushed between gigatons of floating ice. How far can you get?

A Windows editor for the Maximite and MicroMite
MMEdit was created to simplify writing applications for the Maximite computer.
The first versions of MM Basic required line numbers, something that I was happy to leave behind when working on my PC!
Since MM Basic version 3.0, line numbers are no longer required and it has a full screen editor, so the original reason for creating MM Edit has diminished.
Being able to write code on your PC and easily transfer the files between the PC and Maximite is still a good reason for using MM Edit.
Since version 3.5.17, MMEdit can use TeraTerm as the VT100 terminal. TeraTerm is a far superior VT100 terminal than MMEdit's built-in version.
Version 3.6.0 added support for the Micromite Plus.
Version 3.7.0 added support for the Micromite eXtreme.

HW interface
HW interface
The NONchuk board provides a way to interface joysticks and other devices to the RetroMax. The intention is to use the I2C port on the NONchuk to connect to the Nunchuk interface on the RetroMax (or CMM2).
The NONchuk allows the Nunchuk port of the RetroMax to connect to joysticks and several other devices. Since there are a variety of different devices that can be connected, the NONchuk uses a MicroMite chip (the '170 with MMBasic installed) to run code for the task.
The NONchuck has a console port that can be used as the serial interface for programming the MMBasic code specific to how the NONchuk will be used.
The NONchuk features:
• Based on MMBasic '170 so it can be user re/programmed
• Support Atari (digital/switch) joystick
• Support PC (analog/potentiometer) joystick
• Operate as I2C slave interface
• Operate as serial interface
• Support 16 key keypad
• Support rotary module
• Support analog joystick module
The NONchuck board could also be used as a stand-alone MicroMite ('170 chip) board. For example it could be used with a joystick and various pins from the microcontroller could control relays, LEDs, etc.

Library for proportional text
Simple library for use standard fonts on CMM2 as proportional ones. Started with version 0.02, you can mix standard (monospaced) PRINT and TEXT commands with proportional from this library. This library can be used for example in text adventures, because of better readability of texts...
Usage:
• initAll.PROP initialise offsets and widths for all built-in fonts
• initFont.PROP(fnt%) initialise offsets and widths for font fnt%
• text.PROP(x%,y%,txt$,al%,fnt%,fc%,bc%) similar to TEXT command, just size parameter is ommited
• print.PROP(txt$, addSpace$) prints proportional txt$ on current position, wraps character to next line, without line feed, if the string addSpace$ is not empty, then to Nth SPACE (" ") in txt$ is added PX pixels, where PX=ASC(MID$(addSpace$, N, 1)), you can use TAB and LF chars in txt$
• printLn.PROP(txt$, addSpace$) same as print.PROP with line feed
• wrap.PROP(txt$) word wrapped proportional text output
• justify.PROP(txt$, txtWidth%, dx%) full jutified left and right word wrapped proportional text with size txtWidth% written to offset dx%
• justifyLine.PROP(txt$, txtWidth%, dx%) full jutified ONE LINE left and right word wrapped proportional text with size txtWidth% written to offset dx%. In txt$ is then returned non printed rest of text
• getTextWidth.PROP(fnt$, txt$) returns width of the proportinal text in font fnt% in pixels
• tab.PROP(t%) will set TAB position to every t%-pixels
• font.PROP(f%) will set FONT
• color.PROP(fc%, bc%) set foreground and background color

Resistors (One-screen version) by Mick (Mixtel90) (ELECTRO/CHALLENGES, updated 23-04-2021 19:07:16) UPDATE
Color bands to resistor value
Color bands to resistor value
This program was made for CMM1&2 BASIC Programming Challenge 2021 (one screen programs max. 48 rows by 100 columns)
Video on YT about this program is HERE.
The marked tolerance value on resistors is only a guide. In actual fact, resistors are selected on test for their tolerance after manufacture. It's unlikely that you'll find, say, a 5% resistor that's within 1% of it's marked value as those will have already been removed and sold as 1% resistors. Because of this, a resistor actually has two likely value bands, one above it's marked value and one below.
The enclosed program attempts to show these value bands, with a graphical interface to set the value of the resistor. Simply move the band indicating pointer using the B and N keys and press a key 0-9, S or G (silver or gold) to set the band colour. The value information at the right hand side is updated automatically.
The tolerance band will also show the more unusual closer tolerances that are available, although only 1%, 5% and 10% are calculated here. Many old resistors are 20% tolerance but this band hasn't been shown as it's unlikely to be of much interest now.
The program illustrates quite nicely how unlikely it is that you'll find a resistor that is exactly it's marked value.

This program redraws the entire image every frame. The number on the bottom left is the time taken to draw the screen. The program is set to start a new redraw every 35 milliseconds. If the image frames start to take longer than this, then things could start to get laggy. It takes many many things on screen to get to this, a testament to just how fast the CMM2 BASIC interpreter runs.

order to unlock the door leading downward to the next maze which is a little
bit larger than the previous one. Along the way there are six different
treasure types to collect. The color of the maze walls changes from level
to level. Three MP3 sound effects are used.

Commodore like RND maze
Commodore like RND maze
An emulation of the famous Commodore Pet "10PRINT" one-line BASIC maze generator. On the Pet, the characters were made on an 8x8 pixel grid, and the forward and backward slash characters filled that grid from corner to corner, which made the one-line program possible.
This program for CMM2 produces the same result, but alas, with more lines of BASIC.
