Downloadable Disk Images - Programs on "Assembly Language Tools" disk
Assembly language. This got down to the nitty-gritty of the Z80 chip, but it was a way of doing all those clever things at lightening speed and in minimum RAM. Most TRS-80 Model 1 (or clone) owner had at least one assembler in their collection. Whether they used it or not is another question.
Only for the brave and the bold.
