This is a new feature where the linker will automatically divide the code into load segments, creating as many segments as necessary to fit it. This relieves the programmer from the need to manually figure out how a large program can be divided into segments. Auto-segmentation is triggered by the use of the special load segment name AUTOSEG~~~. Using this approach (rather than a flag in the OMF header) allows auto-segmentation to be used with all existing languages that provide a mechanism for specifying load segment names. |

Linker
Apple IIGS ORCA Linker, a link editor for the Apple IIGS object module format
If you would like to make changes to this linker and distribute them to others, feel free to submit them here. If the changes apply to compilation on and for an Apple IIGS, they will generally be approved for distribution on the master branch. For changes that run on a different platform, the project will either be forked or a new repository will be created, as appropriate.
The general conditions that must be met before a change is released on master are:
-
The modified linker must compile under the currently released version of ORCA/M.
-
The ORCA compilers must pass their test suites using the new linker, or the test suite must be suitably modified, too.
Contact support@byteworks.us if you need contributor access.
A complete distribution of the ORCA languages, including installers and documentation, is available from the Juiced GS store at https://juiced.gs/store/category/software/. It is distributed as part of the Opus ][ package.
