We currently have two options for assembly code output, selected by
a checkbox in the application settings: always put labels on the same
lines as the instruction or data operand, or split the labels onto
their own line if they were wider than the label text field.
This change adds a third option, which puts labels on their own line
whenever possible. Assemblers don't generally allow this for variable
assignment pseudo-ops like "foo = $1000", but it's accepted for most
other situations. This is a cosmetic change to the output, and will
not affect the generated code.
The old true/false app setting will be disregarded. "Split if too
long" will be used by default.
Added test 20280-label-placement to exercise the "split whenever
allowed" behavior.
The "export" function has a similar option that has not been updated
(for no particular reason other than laziness).
Also, simplified the app settings GetEnum / SetEnum calls, which
can infer the enumerated type from the arguments. This should not
impact behavior.
Some debuggers allow you to import a list of labels for addresses.
This adds a command that generates a file full of labels in a
specific format. Currently the VICE monitor format is supported.
(issue #151)
The old values were pretty optimistic in terms of the length of labels.
Short labels in all caps are very retro but sort of annoying to read,
so most disassemblies use longer ones. The new defaults are more
accommodating for the way labels are actually used.
We now generate GIF images for visualizations and add inline
references to them in the HTML output.
Images are scaled using the HTML img properties. This works well
on some browsers, but others insist on "smooth" scaling that blurs
out the pixels. This may require a workaround.
An extra blank line is now added above visualizations. This helps
keep the image and data visually grouped.
The Apple II bitmap test project was updated to have a visualization
set with multiple images at the top of the file.
If you link to the file without escaping the '#', the browser will
think it's an anchor inside the page. Easier on everyone to just
alter the filename.
It felt a little weird tying it to the asm generation setting,
so now it's just another checkbox in the export options.
Implemented the feature for plain text output. Did some rearranging
in the code. Fixed suppression of Notes in text and CSV.
Also, removed "include symbol table" from export dialog. You can
exclude the table by removing it from the template, which right
now you'd need to do anyway to get rid of the H2 header and other
framing. To make this work correctly as an option we'd need to
parse the "div" in the template file and strip the whole section,
or split the template into multiple parts that get included as
needed. Not worth doing the work until we're sure it matters.
This feature "exports" the source code in the same format it appears
in on screen. The five columns on the left are optional, the four
on the right can be resized. Exported text can span the entire file
or just the current selection. Output can be plain text or CSV.
(I still haven't figured out a good use for CSV.)
The old copy-to-clipboard function is now implemented via the export
mechanism.
This adds a new clipboard mode that includes all columns. Potentially
useful for filing bug reports against SourceGen.
Ported the column width stuff from EditAppSettings, which it turns
out can be simplified slightly.
Moved the clipboard copy code out into its own class.
Disabled "File > Print", which has never done anything and isn't
likely to do anything in the near future.
Also, added a note to 2019-local-variables about a test case it
should probably have.
