#116678 Manx or Lattice? Message #116976
From: W. Wesley Howe The Amiga Forum · Programming April 1, 1988 2:34 AM
As regards DC.L sym1-sym2 not being able to be used unless both are in the same file, the ADOS binary file format only supports ONE relocation address. As best I can figure that one, you would need to relate the two syms to their load addresses and then subtract them.…

Well, I have found the Imagewriter II driver in AmigaDos 1.2 works well enough with my Imagewriter I. Be sure to set both the printer and Preferences for XON/XOFF and all you need is pins 2 3 & 7 hooked up.
#Asm68k Beta1 Message #48288
From: W. Wesley Howe Forum unknown · Programming January 12, 1987 12:02 AM
Larry – I have uploaded a new version of Asm68k which corrects the problems with 16-bit external references, correctly references EQU & SET Labels as 32-bit values, correctly parses macro parameters separated by commas and (to my embarrassment) now has EQUR and REG Directives switched to match the proper function.…

Larry – As I further check the program since our chat, Asm68k improperly assumes all external references are 32 bit references, and therefore refuses to assemble one as a 16-bit external reference. The now forthcoming beta version will repair this. I don't particularly like the concept, but the linker takes…

Thanks for the reply and the kind words. At present, the assembler doesn't resolve references between sections because as I view it, these would be 16-bit relocatible references to different hunks, and as I understand it, Alink does not support these properly, although Blink does (which I used to link…

Larry – I hope you can show me what instance you had a problem with Asm68k – especially the label change error. The error comes from a different assembly of some instruction(s) on pass 2. I have tried very hard to crash the label routines, but maybe I didn't think…
