This Desktop Front End for SAsm was written by Ainsley Pereira, probably
because he grew impatient waiting for mine!
As soon as I sort out the remaining bugs (?!) in SAsm I'll finish
writing my own. Hopefully this will help those amongst you who can't
leave the desktop without hanging a crucifix and strings of garlic
around your neck and three days of prayer and fasting in preparation.
These are short instructions for assembling the demo programs using
Ainsley's front end.
1. Open the SAsm directory and double-click on SAsmMod to load the
Module version of the assembler. (A 'command' window will open with
a message telling you it is installed).
2. Double click on the !SAsmFrEnd application and it will install on
the icon bar.
3. Make sure that you have a RAMdisc of at least 100K. Ainsley's front
end uses this as a destination for assembled code by default.
4. Open the 'Examples' sub directory of the SAsm directory.
5. Click on the front end icon on the iconbar and a window will open.
6. Drag the files Hello_A, Hello_B and Hello_C_50 from the 'Examples'
directory to this window IN THAT ORDER.
7. Click on 'Assemble'.
If you look at the RAM disc you should find that you have two files, an
application called !RunImage and a text file called SAsmLog. If you
double-click on !Runimage it will simply print -
Welcome to the SAsm Assembler
This is the 'Hello' demonstration program
If you load the file SAsmLog into !Edit you should see a log of the
messages from SAsm during assembly which should be like this -
