| Readme: | Short: Checksummer for BASIC listings Author: felix@palmen-it.de (Felix Palmen) Uploader: polluks+aminet sdf lonestar org (Stefan Haubenthal) Type: dev/cross Architecture: ppc-morphos; m68k-amigaos
Build requirements: -------------------
- gcc or clang (for `mksums` and converting a checksummer to BASIC) - ca65 / ld65 (for building the individual checksummers) - petcat (for creating .PRG files from BASIC sources)
Build instructions: -------------------
To build everything:
make
make is expected to be GNU make, so e.g. on a BSD system, type `gmake` instead of `make` everywhere.
To build only the `mksums` tool:
make mksums
To clean up:
make clean
To clean up AND remove the targets:
make distclean
make variables:
CC command to execute the C compiler (default: cc) CFLAGS flags for the C compiler (default: -g0 -O2) C64AS command to execute ca65 (default: ca65) C64LD command to execute ld65 (default: ld65) PETCAT command to execute petcat (default: petcat)
Usage: ------
For creating checksums:
mksums [-s] < input.prg > checksums.txt
creates checksums for the input.prg BASIC program in checksums.txt -s: allow shifted spaces in input.prg
For typing a BASIC program with checksumming:
- Load the .prg for your target platform - Type `RUN` and `NEW` - Start typing your program, checksums appear in upper right corner - When finished, SAVE your program to disk (never use the datasette!!) - Reset or turn of computer to deactivate the checksummer - Load your typed program and enjoy.
