The Commodore Newspaper, a publication of the National Commodore Association, provided useful information to owners of the machines in the title from 1986 until 1994. The magazine published a lot of code created by hobby programmers. The code was published in the form of listings, that had to be typed into the computer. The magazine also had topics such as electronics and interfacing, ocassionally printing schematics to create things like a reset-button for the C64 or a better cassette interface.

Not many of these listings were available to the west, so there are some software gems hidden in the pages of this magazine, ready for you to discover.
