Version 1.01 adds one directive, a few error checks, and corrects a blocked variable name.
- Added = to replace the set directive as preferred form for defining mutable variables and performing variable calculations, e.g., val = val + 1. If a label is immutable (defined only once), the = can be omitted. Legacy/DASM-style set (mutable) and equ (immutable) are still usable, but may be removed in later versions.
- Single letter variable name A was partially blocked by leftover, incomplete support for the optional "asl a" syntax in shift/rotate instructions (asl, lsr, rol, ror). As before, only the standard syntax without A is accepted, but the variable name A is now available.
- Unexpected parameters after else and endif now throw an error, whereas they were previously ignored. Colon-separated instructions can still be placed on the same line, e.g., else : lda #$00 : endif.
- New label names are now properly validated: Names must start with a letter and contain only the characters A-Z, a-z, 0-9, and _. All names conflicting with instructions or directives are now also rejected. Macro names are more flexible, allowing synthetic instruction style names like adc.w. |
