Has anyone heard of someone building a programmers front panel like on a PDP or the Altair on the Apple ][?
I know that it is not needed, because I can do the same thing with the keyboard and screen, but I like blinking lights!
I have seen some being run from a PC running an emulator of a PDP-8 and 11. I just thought something similar would be cool on an Apple ][.

If you're just interested in output:
1. Place and LED on each data and address line.
2. Wire up a single-step circuit (the one in the Apple I Operations Manual should work) so you can step through instructions one at a time.
Thanks for your reply. While I may just have to settle for output, I would like input as well.
I'll check out the Apple 1 manual.
Thanks,
James
