RE: Bug in Macro-80C assembler (Re: Msg 44719)

MACRO 80C has programs which are what I’d call BASIC “shells,” but the
programs that do the real work are written in machine language. For
example, to assemble a file, you just type RUN “AS” and the program LOADMs
a program called “AS%.BIN” and pokes in certain initialization values. So,
for the assembler itself, a WIDTH 80 would work… however, the editor
program is tied real hard to a 32-column screen.

I just remembered that MACRO-80c is a full screen editor, meaning it WOULD
be a chore converting it to 80 cols. But I’m surprized that no one has
done it yet. It’s been out for a long time. Oh well, thanks for clearing
up the BASIC/ ml part of the program. Ken Halter
