[net.micro.trs-80] edtasm

Anyone have a routine that will convert an ascii file into something that edtasm can read?  I really wouldn't mind knowing what the deal is with edtasm anyway.

It's so weird.

thanks in advance.

Is it possible to write z80 code using model iii edtasm then transfer it
to model iv, if the program was originally designed for model iv??

I haven't got model iv edtasm, but I do have two versions of iii edtasm

thanks in advance

Yes it is. The load file format is exactly the same. The only thing
is that DOS calls in Model 4 DOS are quite different as are all I/O
calls to screen and keyboard etc.

I don't use edtasm but I do all my assembly for Model I, III, IV and
Max-80 using the same Model III assembler in Model III mode on my
Model 4. Then I transfer to whichever machine it is for.
