Well, I am finally getting around to finishing up a graphics package I have written for the hires board in my Model II using m80 and l80 (macro assembler). I have some quick routines I want to write using edtasm but cannot figure out the load command within edtasm ie. how do I load a source file into edtasm. I am a veteran Model I/III/IV user and have tried all of the obvious (and not so obvious) ways. I have tried R/S as well (you try to find a R/S salesrep or CSR who knows what a Model II is let alone 'edtasm' :-) E-mail responses only please. Thanks in advance.

Not sure of the format but it was something like: 1) 2 bytes pointer to next line. 2) 2 bytes line number. 3) Actual text 1 was an absolute memory address. I solved the problem on the Model 1/3 by buying EDAS and MRAS from Misosys, I don't think that will help you much. For you old timer's you'll note the format is the same as ROM basic used for storing lines. -Rob
