ac, extended

This is a revamp of the venerable ac command-line utility with a more modern command-line interface.

Sample Run

All of the commands use -d to designate the disk. If there are many commands, setting the environment variable ACX_DISK_NAME can be used to simplify commands.

For example, this sequence:

  1. Creates a ProDOS disk image (pulling ProDOS from the 2.4.2 system master).
  2. Imports and tokenizes the sample startup.bas program and places it on the disk as STARTUP.
  3. Lists the resulting disk.
$ cat > startup.bas
10 TEXT:HOME:GR
20 FOR Y=0 TO 3
30 FOR X=0 TO 3
40 COLOR=Y*4+X
50 FOR A=0 TO 9  
60 HLIN X*10,X*10+9 AT Y*10+A
70 NEXT A,X,Y
80 END
<ctrl+D>

$ export ACX_DISK_NAME=sample.po
$ acx create --format=ProDOS_2_4_2.dsk --name=SAMPLES --size=140k --type=prodos
$ acx import --basic startup.bas --name=STARTUP
