[comp.sys.ibm.pc] WANTED: Z80 Disassembler for MSDOS

GARLAND@ohstpy.mps.ohio-state.edu (09/14/89)

I have desperate need for a Z80 (or 8080, 8085) DISassembler which will run
under MS-DOS. I've found plenty of 8086, 80286, 80386 disassemblers for MS-DOS
but none for the Z80.  Can anyone help? Thanks greatly.

I have a package called Z80MU V3.10 by Joan Riff of Computerwise Consulting.
It's a rather clever package which runs under DOS and provides CP/M-80
and Z80 emulation.  It has been placed in the public domain and I picked it
up, if memory serves, from comp.binaries.ibm.pc's "de-moderated" predecessor.
This is version 3.10, dated 3/14/86.  New versions were supposedly forth-
coming, but I haven't heard anything.

It is a very richly featured package.  Relevant to your request is the
following:

	Full disassembler much like Ward Christensen's RESOURCE
	built right in with

		Symbolic Addresses

		Control Breakpoints for Instructions, Bytes (DB),
		Words (DW), Table of Words (DW), and Storage (DS).

		Automatic label generation

		Comments associated with Z80 addresses.

BTW: Z80MU includes a "speed?" command which benchmarks the emulated Z80
and prints an "effective clock rate."  In a Simul-Task (VP/IX) process 
on this otherwise idle AT&T 6386 (16 MHz 386, but measures 18 MHz if you 
have 4 MB RAM - which this one does), the benchmark "clock rate" was about
1.4 MHz.  On my old TI Pro with a 5 Mhz 8088 I think it pulled somewhere 
between 200 - 250 KHz.

For all of you old CP/M hacks, it might amuse you to know that the TPA
in the emulated CP/M is 65022 bytes.

regards, Larry
