+This directory contains SixtyPical example programs
+specifically for the Apple II series of computers.
+
+See the [README in the parent directory](../README.md) for
+more information on these example programs.
+
+Note that `sixtypical` does not currently support "load
+and go" execution of these programs, because constructing
+an Apple II disk image file on the fly is not something
+it can currently do.  If you have the linapple sources
+checked out, and the a2tools available, you could do
+something like this:
+
+    bin/sixtypical --traceback --origin=0x2000 --output-format=raw eg/apple2/prog.60p --output prog.bin
+    cp /path/to/linapple/res/Master.dsk sixtypical.dsk
+    a2rm sixtypical.dsk PROG
+    a2in B sixtypical.dsk PROG prog.bin
+    linapple -d1 sixtypical.dsk -autoboot
+
+and then enter
+
+    BLOAD PROG
+    CALL 8192
+
+Ideally you could
+
+    BRUN PROG
+
+But that does not always return to BASIC and I'm not sure why.
