A few design principles that I have tried to apply:
- *Simplicity* This software runs on the Apple //e and currently fits within 64KB of RAM (although I may use the 64KB of aux memory for future enhancements.) It is important that is be as simple and small as possible. The code is written in C using cc65, which allows more rapid evolution when compared to writing in assembly language, at the expense of larger code which uses more memory.

- *Modularity* Where it makes sense to split the functionality into separate modules it makes sense to do so in order to make the best use of available memory.
- *Speed* The software should make the most of the limited hardware of the Apple //e in order to allow speedy browsing of emails without needing much processor or disk activity.
- *Avoidance of Limits* I tried to avoid the imposition of arbitrary limits to message length or the number of messages in a folder.
