Maybe Digital Research (DRI) was providing development tools on both 68k systems? Quote:

There are some more similarities, like the BIOS functions accessed via TRAPs instructions and the OS's via LINEF (compared to Atari's LINEA stuff).

Ah, one more thing, i don't know if Vasm supports this but there's a feature i've seen in the x68000 official assembler and in an MS-DOS one used for MegaDrive games: the possibility to separate digits within numbers with an underscore, something like: %1111_0010_1000 or $12_34_56_78 (that feature is only made for visual help).

Discussed that feature with Volker last night and he doesn't like it either. So, although it is easy to implement, we would currently not do it, unless there is relevant existing practice and some more requests for it from the community. (Problem for me is that such a change in the expression parser affects all modules and always wastes some extra cylces to check for the underscore. So there must be a good reason.) EDIT: In case we change our mind: can you provide a reference to the documentation for one of these assemblers? Are source texts otherwise compatible with vasm or would there be more incompatibilities? Last edited by phx; 23 July 2024 at 15:15. Reason: assembler docs |
