MIXIT once again

(1 / 1)


Due to popular demand, MIXIT can now output a file suitable for assembly by the
68000 assembler. The file type is .ASM. The code is not inserted in any
particular section nor is the PC set to anything (it could be "included" by a
different module. The code is placed in DC.B statements, 16 bytes per line
unless otherwise specified (with the /REC=n qualifier). Blank spaces are skipped
with the DS.B directive. To date there are now 8 different output formats that
can be created by MIXIT (and DIO/IMI uploader) and 6 input formats that can be
read by MIXIT (and DOWNC/DOWND and DIO/IMI programs). 

The first two formats must be output only (MIXIT won't read them properly):
	$ MIXIT
	>OUT filename.ASM  !or filename.bla_bla/ASM  68k assem format
	>OUT filename.MAC  !or filename.bla_bla/MAC  MAC65 assem format
The remaining formats can be either output or output:
	>OUT filename.DLD  !or filename.bla_bla/DLD  MOStech load format
	>OUT filename.HEX  !or filename.bla_bla/TEK  Extended TEKHEX format
	>OUT filename.ROM  !or filename.bla_bla/ROM  Atari .ROM format
	>OUT filename.LDA  !or filename.bla_bla/LDA  DEC LDA format
	>OUT filename.VLDA !or filename.bla_bla/VLDA Atari VLDA format

VLDA is the default input and output type.

	>OUT filename.anything_else !or filename/IMAGE binary image format
