This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

SK10 3DJ. 27k assembler ============= Having kept promising this utility to you for some time I have now had chance to finish and check it for you.The results appear on this issue disk called 27KASM,along with 2 test program TEST and TEST2. Even on a casette machine in MODE seven there are only 27k of free memory for programs,or 28k if you're using a shadow MODE such as available on the Master 128. When writing large assembler programs you could quite easily fill this 27k with source code,which means when it comes to assembly BASIC gives the insulting "No room" message as there is no free space to keep the line references on the HEAP. The normal way around this is to assemble your program in parts but this has the disadvantage of your loosing the variables between. Another possible route is open to those with sideways RAM.Using BASIC2's offset assembly and pointing the code into &8000.This is fine,except when you come to saving as using *SAVE will page in the DFS.Also,it wont work on a Master. This is where my program comes into its own.It will work on any unexpanded 8 bit Acorn (but is NOT 2nd processor compatible).ie.a Master,Elk,BBC B etc... as long as it has at least BASIC version 2. You can tell if you have BASIC2 by turning on,typing *BASIC then REPORT.Dates of 1982 or greater are fine. There are some modifications you'll need to make to you code,this is best illustrated by a frivilous example, using the generic header I use for all my assembler listings: 10REM Pointless program 20REM (C)1996 Joe Bloggs 30DIM code% 256 40INPUT"Assemble at "loc$ 50loc%=EVAL(loc$) 60REM Define os variables for later 70oswc=&FFEE:oswd=&FFF1:osfd=&FFCE 80osfd=&FFCE:ospb=&FFD4:osby=&FFF4 90FORX=4 TO 7 STEP3 100O%=code%:P%=loc% 110[OPTX 120NOP 130RTS 140] 150NEXT 160REM Save mcode to disk as usual 170OSCLI"SAVE OUTPUT "+STR$~(asm%)+" "+STR$~(O%)+" "+STR$~(loc%)+" "+STR$~(loc%) Requires modifying in the following ways: *RUN the redirector,27KASM SET O%=&A00 DO VDU255 at top and bottom inside the FOR...NEXT loop Although not essential,you don't need to DIM any memory for it now,and the *SAVE command at the end is not needed anymore,which would make the above become: 10REM Pointless program 20REM (C)1996 Joe Bloggs 30 40INPUT"Assemble at "loc$ 50loc%=EVAL(loc$) 60REM Define os variables for later 70oswc=&FFEE:oswd=&FFF1:osfd=&FFCE 80osfd=&FFCE:ospb=&FFD4:osby=&FFF4 85*RUN 27KASM 90FORX=4 TO 7 STEP3 100O%=&A00:P%=loc% 105VDU255 110[OPTX 120NOP 130RTS 140] 145VDU255 150NEXT 160 170 Also enclosed on this disk are 2 further test programs,which don't do anything special,but illustrate some other features.As vectors are repointed the 27KASM program shouldn't be *RUN twice without pressing BREAK in between.The program will work with both the TAPE,DFS,and ADFS. Note that it uses page &A00 (cassette and RS423 receive on the BBC) as a buffer for BASIC to assemble to.The program itself occupies page &C00 (character redef buffer on BBC or Econet workspace on the Master) so don't redefine any characters.If these locations pose a problem to yuo send `2.50 with a note saying where your preffered buffer/program areas are and I'll send you a customised version back on disk. This has been tested with BASIC2 and BASIC4.It wont work with BASIC1 as this has no offset assembly option. Let me know how you get on,and I'll look forward to seeing your 27k assembler programs in future EUG's (actually they wont be THAT long as I've found that roughly for every 7.25 bytes of BASIC source you write only 1 byte of mcode is generated,so 3.75k of mcode is more realistic!).
