Nice editor/assembler, but the first program that I wrote didn't work
with it:
Taking Trent Lillehaugen's Key Input example & altering it so that the
program does not exit until EXIT is pressed, I found that it looped
endlessly if compiled in Assembly Studio but worked fine with
winasm86. - It appears that the "cp" instruction always sets the zero
bit. - either that or "jp z,..." doesn't test the zero bit properly.
Highlighting the text would be nice, but a simple macro recorder /
player would probably be more useful. It would also be very nice to
be able to pass a file to it as an argument (eg. double-click a file
to load it). I would also like some more hotkeys (ie. Replace,
Compile) and perhaps the ability to load an external emulator?
Another feature I would like is the automatic replacing of leading
spaces with tabs.
Please?
I do like the sprite editor & the help!
BTW. I don't suppose that there is a way to send an argument to
(WIN)Asm86?
Thankyou, AJD
