C64-Wiki:ACheck-Rules

On this page rules for ACheck are defined.

The name of a rule needs to be given as a headline of a section ("== Name of rule =="). Then an exact line must follow which describes the rule. Then the single rules follow, each with 3 successice lines. Each of this rule line must start with a space so the design is nicer.
