dis6502 is a flow-tracing disassembler for the 6502, originally written
|
|
by Robert Bond and supporting Atari binary files. Robert posted dis6502
|
|
to the Usenet newsgroup net.sources on 9-Oct-1986, and to
|
|
comp.sources.unix 7-Jun-1988. Udi Finkelstein ported dis6502 to the
|
|
Amiga, added support for Commodore 64 object files, and posted it to
|
|
comp.sources.amiga on 4-Nov-1988. These versions were in the public
|
|
domain.
|
|
|
|
This version of dis6502 has been modified in several ways:
|
|
|
|
* Can read raw binary files.
|
|
|
|
* Option to specify alternate reset and interrupt vector addresses.
|
|
|
|
* Line numbers are no longer necessary with equates in definition files.
|
|
|
|
* If a data reference is made to an address that does not have an
|
|
assigned name, but address-1 does, the reference will be disassembled
|
|
as name+1. This is convenient for two-byte variables, particularly in
|
|
zero page.
|
|
|
|
* New definition file directives:
|
|
|
|
<name> .equ <addr> same as .eq
|
|
|
|
.jtab2 <addr>,<addr>,<count> table of code pointers, split
|
|
into high and low byte tables
|
|
|
|
.rtstab <addr>,<addr>,<count> like jtab2, but each entry
|
|
contains the target address
|
|
minus one, for use with RTS
|
|
|
|
* Rather than using recursive calls to trace every instruction, there is
|
|
now a trace queue.
|
|
|
|
* Added a "-7" option to mask off MSB of character data.
|
|
|
|
* Updated to use ANSI C function prototypes and include files.
|
|
|
|
* Amiga/Manx changes have been removed.
|
|
|
|
dis6502 has been tested on Red Hat Linux 9, but should work on other
|
|
Linux, BSD, and Unix systems.
