Demo

The best way to make full use of this project is to start with the Atari 8-bit Git template

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/e0558c34-0741-4e70-920e-98a72fade00e

The video shows this commit being made from my Atari. Note that the BASIC listing and the commit message both contain a "♥" which is 0x00 in ATASCII and therefore not valid in a standard text file. ATASCII characters get translated automatically to their closest Unicode equivalent.
