- The Merlin linker links binary files without any problem.
-
- Some others referred to LinkMeister (perhaps?) that converts
- file to Merlin link files... you don't need it. All you have to do
- is change the file type from the 'D'isk commands, by typing "filetype
- <file> BIN" make sure the filetype is in caps, because it has problems
- with $c0 as opposed to $C0.... This is using Merlin 16+ (GS/OS)
- version...
-
- And you can reference the info by a label... if you lnk
- shrpage1, you could lda #shrpage or ldal shrpage,x etc.... make sure
- it is declared as an ext shrpage at the top....
