Windows based assembler and terminal

[Kevin Murrell]

More than happy to share the code with anyone that might find it useful.

Thanks for the offer. I definitely would like a copy. BTW, you can post a ZIP file to this blog...

I promised to put the source etc for my assembler/terminal online. It is downloadable from:

Hi Kevin. Thanks for making your Windows dev. kit available. It worked great - except for the bug that was in Joe's original assember: The listing output does not display assembler lines that contain only a label. I've attached a ZIP file containing the bsort.asm and bsort.lst that dorrectly displays the label only lines in the bsort listing. If you download my update of Joe's assembler (in a previous blog) you'll see the simple change I made to his oritginal code to fix it. Cheers, Lyle

Hi

Given it's quite different code, it's odd that both of us didn't include the label only line. Thanks for pointing this out.

The fix to the source is the italic line below.

                **switch (oper.ToLower())
                {
                    case "":
                            displayAssembledLine(step, 0, line);
                           break;
                    case "org":
                        step = Convert.ToInt16(oprn, 16);
                        displayAssembledLine(step, 
                            0, 
                            line);
                        break;**

I will update the built versions on my web site here:

Forgot to say "Thank you" for updating your Windows Assembler. Works great.
Cheers, Lyle

A couple of the sample programs don't assemble to code, just 0...0 down the line. The attached example did output one line of machine code.

New to the Relay Computer (still soldering).

I downloaded the Window Assembler off the link, it runs fine (Win11) but clicking the "View Listing" button crashes (throws a file exception).

Can the Assembler make a text file of the listing in the current directory? Like the good old days??
