.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
This assembler is made with the general framework
|
|
|
|
|
described in \fIuni_ass\fP(6). It is an assembler-loader.
|
|
|
|
|
Output is in \fIack.out\fP(5) object format, but not relocatable.
|
|
|
|
|
.SH "SECTIONS and TYPES"
|
|
|
|
|
An additional section, the \fIzeropage\fP, can be started by the
|
|
|
|
|
\&\fI.sect .zero\fP pseudo-instruction.
|
|
|
|
|
Some adressing-modes require an address between 0 and 255.
|
|
|
|
|
Such an address must be defined with the means of the \fI.sect .zero\fP
|
|
|
|
|
pseudo-instruction.
|
|
|
|
|
A plain number between 0 and 255 is not allowed.
|
|
|
|
|
The assembler will complain that it must be a zero page expression.

.SH SYNTAX
|
|
|
|
|
.IP expressions
|
|
|
|
|
An two-byte expression followed by the pseudo-operator \fI.h\fP (\fI.l\fP)
|
|
|
|
|
has the value of the higher (lower) byte of the expression.
|
|
|
|
|
\&\fI.h\fP and \fI.l\fP bind stronger than all other operators.
|
|
|
|
|
E.g. -1.h parses as -[1.h] which has value 0.
|
|
|
|
|
You have to write [-1].h to get 0xFF.

In the next two addressing modes \fIexpr\fP has to be

|
|
|
|
a zeropage expression.

|

|
(expr, x) expr + contents of x
|

yields address (pre-indexed indirect)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(expr), y contents of expr + contents of y
|

.IP instructions
|
|
|
|
|
There are two mnemonics that do not map onto one machine-instruction:
|
|
|
|
|
\fIadd\fP and \fIsub\fP. \fIAdd mode\fP maps onto \fIclc; adc mode\fP.
|
|
|
|
|
\fISub mode\fP maps onto \fIsec; sbc mode\fP.
