Hello CP/Mers, I grabbed Small-C from wuarchive.wustl.edu (which mirrors SIMTEL20), and it seems to run ok. My problem now is that it generates .MAC files, and I'm not sure how to assemble these (well, if I had DRI's MAC or RMAC I'd probably know, but I don't :) I do have M80 and L80 ... I would appreciate general information on those programs PS: to all those who posted or emailed about my previous questions : I am in the process of summarizing ... Real Soon Now :-) (please email replies to this question to dcook@spam.adelaide.edu.au )

You MUST use the ZASM/ZLINK (like Small-C, it's PD). You should be able to find it on any well-stocked BBS, and it's also on SIMTEL20.

Version 1.2 (supports float and Z80) requires ZASM/ZLINK. Veersion 2.1 (supports more control structures and the 8080 but not float) uses a DRI like assembler. It isn't quite like the DRI MAC or RMAC because it declares global and external symbols differently. Both the versions of Small C are avialable from SIMTEL-20. -- Rick Clements (RickC@pogo.WV.TEK.COM)

I've been using it for a while now, and it works well. What is this ZASM/ZLINK thingie anyway? Wouldn't you know it, I couldn't find my Small-C book (yes, I PAID for Small-C... AND Small-Mac... AND Small-Tools too... GOOD STUFF!) I don't know what version I have - may be a little out of date by now. But then, is Small-C for CP/M supported anymore??
