I'll explain a little what interested me about EDASM. My= PLASMA project needs an assembler to really be a full featured environment= as well as develop the actual interpreter and loader. I have been using t= he cc65 assembler but wanted something self-hosted. Along these same lines,= I was thinking of a relocatable module format for PLASMA. Why not kill tw= o birds with one stone and combine the advantages of EDASM: disk based, abl= e to run on a 64k machine, relocating object file format, with PLASMA. I ca= n easily extend the relocatable object file format to include a byte code s= egment. I'm just missing some of the low level details of ProDOS EDASM so I= don't break or misappropriate features EDASM relies on. PLASMA could then= be a linking loader for both EDASM generated REL files and PLASMA modules.= =20 Dave...
