DOS assembler for 6502 source code

[KAZ]

OK, I think I found something useful for programming the Atari 2600.

 

Ok, consider if I download DASM 2.02 for MSDOS.

 

Then pretend for a second that I wrote the correct code into this program...

 

How would I THEN make it into a usable format for an Atari emulator?

 

I'm a newbie here, I'm really clueless.

Say your source file is defender.asm, you would type (at the command line):

 

"dasm defender.asm -f3 -odefender.bin"

 

And it would produce defender.bin, which should work on an emulator.

 

You can also use a one line batch file to make it a little easier. Save the following in a text file as ASM.BAT.

 

"dasm %1.asm -f3 -o%1.bin"

 

Then you'd just type:

 

"asm defender"

That's actually pretty clear, I almost understand that.

 

If I knew more ms-dos, it would be even better...

 

Thanks for the information, I will slowly try to continue to figure out the very basics of programming for the 2600...

 

I'm further along in my knowledge than I was even last night....
