# Assembling z80 source from the shell
|
|
|
|
In its current state, Collapse OS has all you need to assemble z80 source
|
|
from within the shell. What you need is:
|
|
|
|
* A mounted filesystem with `zasm` on it.
|
|
* A block device to read from (can be a file from mounted CFS)
|
|
* A block device to write to (can theoretically be a file, but technical
|
|
limitations temporary prevents us that. We'll use a mmap for now).
|
|
|
|
The emulated shell is already set up with all you need. If you want to run that
|
|
on a real machine, you'll have to make sure to provide these requirements.
|
|
|
|
The emulated shell has a `hello.asm` file in its mounted filesystem that is
|
|
ready to compile. It has two file handles 0 and 1, mapped to blk IDs 1 and 2.
|
|
We only use file handle 0 (blk ID 1) and then tell zasm to output to mmap which
|
|
is configured to start at `0xe00`
|
|
|
|
Collapse OS
|
|
> fopn 0 hello.asm ; open file in handle 0
|
|
> zasm 1 3 ; assemble opened file and spit result in mmap
|
|
> bsel 3 ; select mmap
|
|
> peek 5
|
|
210890CD3C ; looking good
|
|
> mptr 4200 ; hello.asm is configured to run from 0x4200
|
|
> load ff ; load compiled code from mmap
|
|
> peek 5
|
|
210890CD3C ; looking good
|
|
> call 00 0000
|
|
Assembled from the shell
|
|
> ; Awesome!
