Some notes about Robert Bond's 'dis' program, Amiga version.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is a quick & dirty port of a 6502 reverse assembler I that I had under
|
||
|
|
my hand for a long time. I didn't bother optimizing the stuff too much, I
|
||
|
|
just wanted to see it working. This is the sort of 'dirty' ports where you
|
||
|
|
first compiler the original file, then watch the compiler errors, and fix
|
||
|
|
the errors in the file, without looking anywhere else in it. Therefor:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1) 'dis' requires C:Sort ( too much bother to replace ) & C:Type ( I AM
|
||
|
|
lazy!!!)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2) I still don't understand why are the line numbers needed in the
|
||
|
|
c64.predef file. I don't have much UNIX experience, and no experience at
|
||
|
|
all with lex. lex code is like chinese to me, but reading the perdef
|
||
|
|
I think that the line numbers are ignored and are used only to easily
|
||
|
|
identify '.eq' lines.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3) The program is recursive, too much recursive! the trace routine calls
|
||
|
|
itself not only on branches, but every instruction! large stacks ( even
|
||
|
|
50K isn't too much for large programs ), are welcomed... I will modify
|
||
|
|
this as soon as I'll have time. it should be easy to remove recursion in
|
||
|
|
the non branch/jmp instructions. branches must have recursion.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I also enhanced the original package, and added support for c64 binary file,
|
||
|
|
which wasn't there before. ( It had only ATARI load/boot files ). The C64
|
||
|
|
file format was much simpler than those other 2 formats. To select C64 file
|
||
|
|
format, use the '-c' flag. I also included a c64.predefs file with some C64
|
||
|
|
constant addresses. Also, FYI, lex.c was generated on a SUN from lex.l and
|
||
|
|
then downloaded to the Amiga. lex.c was also __edited__ before compilation.
|
||
|
|
I know that it's a no-no to edit machine-generated files, but it was
|
||
|
|
necessary.
