Introduction
These 6809 tools are a collection of free software I have collected
together with some scripts to allow them to be easily used.
These tools are intended to allow a relative beginner to compile
simple programs that will compile to multiple 6809 destination
systems.
All compilation is done with 'ASW' via batch files (found in
\Utils).... and a copy of Notepad++ is provided for code editing
Code can be easily assembled via Notepad++ by pressing F6 to use NppExec, and selecting
one of the destinations... the appropriate batch file will be
executed building the program, and the emulator started
Disclaimer
Please use these tools at your own risk.
They are provided freely in the hope they will be of use, and have
been tested to the best of my ability but I cannot test in all
situations or guarantee they will not harm your computer in some
unexpected way.
These tools have been tested on Windows 10, Windows 7 64 bit, and
Windows XP 32 bit
With the exception of AkuSprite Editor, MsxHeader and
PlusThreeHeader and the scripts and examples I did not write
the tools provided in this kit - to my knowledge, all the tools in
here are Free and open source, and there is no reason they cannot be
redistributed - if you know otherwise, please notify me and I
will take appropriate action to resolve the issue.
Getting Started
1. Download both the Sources.7z and
Devtools.7z onto your machine.
2. Extract the Devtools.7z into a
folder on your machine - preserving the directory structure.
3. Extract the Sources.7z into the
same folder, overwrite any existing files (the
sources.7z is newer)
4. From that folder, run "Qdrive.bat".
This will create a virtual Q drive on your machine... if Q is in
use, R or S will be used.
5. From that virtual drive, Run
"Notepad++.bat" to edit and run the asm files
when you are done use "Qdrive-remove" to remove the Q drive
