[comp.sys.atari.st] DISTOMWC.PRG problem

dag@chinet.UUCP (Daniel A. Glasser) (03/23/88)

DISTOMWC.PRG, posted here a little while ago, works fine for me with
the exception of the ".ascii" lines in the data file.  The problem that
I've found is that if the preceeding line of disassembly is longer
than the line with the ".ascii" on it, the closing quote is followed
by the remainder of the preceeding line on it.  I suspect that it
is a simple problem of forgetting to add the nul character to the
buffer after building the string.

Also, when absolute short addresses are used in some instructions, the syntax
generated by DISTOMWC.PRG is addr:s.  This is correct, but for some reason,
MWC's AS.PRG (as shipped in 2.1.7) does not seem to recognize it.  Since
I maintain this program at MWC, I will be sure that this is fixed in
release 3.0 (coming soon to a mailbox/store near you!).

There are a few tricks that I would like to try and add to DISTOMWC.PRG,
including reading MWC symbol tables and use of .blkb directives in .bssd
and .long/.word directives in more places in .shrd.  Are the sources
available?  If so, please reply to me via E-mail to one of the addresses
in my .signature file.  Thanks...
