I have noticed at the beginning of an executable program file that there is a branch into the main program, followed by a few numbers, followed by the main object file. What are these numbers? I have used the compiler supplied with STOS to write some small routines for use in STOS; I would also like to use these outside it. These do not have the header that executable files have. What info should I put before them to make them executable? Also: could somebody give me a list of commands for directly turning on the Disk Drive, moving the head to a sector, reading and writing a block to a sector, formatting a sector etc. I know the addresses $FF86xx are involved in this, but I'm not sure how. Any info on both of the above would be appreciated.
