Hello,

* is a cross-development tool for many 8-bit computer systems available at www dot * dot com.
Originally it was only for Atari 8-bit computers but have grown to support also Apple II, Atari 2600, Atari 7800, C64 and NES.
So the "single most relevant category" no longer is Atari 8-bit, but there would also include:


Computers: Systems: Apple: Apple II
Computers: Systems: Commodore: Programming
Games: Video Games: Console Platforms: Atari: VCS Family: Atari 2600: Developer Resources
Games: Video Games: Console Platforms: Nintendo: NES


Is there a way to get the site listed there, also?

Thanks for your support, Peter.

It would have to be in a parent category; sites are rarely listed in that many categories. If you're interested, I could research that.

Hi! Well, there is no parent category "8-bit systems" in this case from what I see. The top-level distinction is the manufacturer (Atari/Commodore) followed by the model.

In cases like this editor discretion is the the key; it can be either listing the site in multiple categories (which we really don't like doing; as arubin said above, we try for a parent category), reorganizing or creating a new category (particularly if we can find multiple sites which will fit into it).
At a glance, Computers/Software/Operating_Systems/Open_Source and Computers/Programming/Compilers/Cross_Compilers also look like possible candidates (I searched for 6502)

Hello,

thanks a lot, looking at that level I find

Computers/Programming/Development_Tools/Development_Environments

most appropriate, as in its core it is an Integrated Development Environment for different platforms and languages.

Can somebody just change that or do I have to file another type of request?

Best Regards, Peter

You just suggest the site (the :suggest-a-site: icon) to the category, and a volunteer editor will review your suggestion, but we can't say when as there is no time-scale.
For more information, we have a FAQ on the subject. :)
