Wow... lots of stuff u got there.
Always good to have copies on paper, since you're at least protected from unwanted deletion or even hardware bad surprises.
Good luck on those projects dj =]

Definitely like the concept =]
Dunno if it's already been done before but if not, you're a true genius.

If you're out of ideas, here i come :
- 2nd surface type :
The slime can cross it but doesn't stick on it and will immediatly fall if on ceiling or walls.
Allowing the ennemy to stick on it could add some difficulty and fun.
- powerup idea :
Once you take it, you have the possibility to stick at an infinite range (up|left|right only), but you can use it only once (or maybe time-limited ?).
There is only one available per screen, but another one is immediatly generated (randomly ?) when you take it.
This could enlarge the moving capabilities of the slime and he could then be able to evade multiple dangers if surrounded.

Just what i needed to know.
Informations are now copied inside my brain =]
I'll try to manage this using the edit buffer.
I knew it was a good choice when i decided to keep, a long time ago, that undocumented EDITBUF.PDF.

Thx again =]

If everything goes well, i'll finish the address labels feature today.

It will then be time to finish the macro feature.
The way i made it, the possibilities will be really huge, like, for example, being able to create new instructions.
Wouldn't it be fun to be able to code something like, for example : EX BC,DE =]

Cu around...

P.S. : I still need some help (2 posts behind). Thx in advance u experienced coders =]

Hey there =]

A quick post to keep ya informed...

overall progress : let's say around 67%
current code size : almost 5K

I'm currently coding the part that deals with address labels (hot).

*****

While i'm at it, i need some advices on something :

When asmdream encounters an error in pass 1 (check part), i'd like the user to be able to use a goto feature to easily locate the error in source|includes.

More precisely, asmdream displays the appropriate error message and if the user selects "goto", i need to process the following steps :
- quit the program, and right after :
- automatically opens up the os prgm editor for the concerned prgm
- automatically sets the blinking cursor to a predefined token

I already thought of tricking the os by simulating a fake syntax error, but without displaying its err message, since i already have mine.
But, i still dunno how to do this =S

Also, i found a bcall named _GoToErr (4CD8) but it's fully undocumented =[

Anyway, for now, when an error is encountered, asmdream saves the following data :
- prgm obj & name
- error token offset
- error token page (if in rom)

Any idea ?

Thx in advance =]

Yo...

Looks like i'm gonna be able to unlock some more time on the project.
I'm still on my way to include some essential error handling.
Basically, that means re-thinking/re-writing a fat part of my stuff.
When this part of the algo will be finished, there will be (i hope) no way for asmdream to crash while assembling, which is a good point.
Despite it's a real pain, it had to be done and fortunately, things work like i want these coding days =]

While i'm at it, i decided to remove several restrictions.
More precisely, most of the features will only be limited by the amount of available memory.

The road is long but i'll make it !

Yo...

No problemo master =]
Not much time to dedicate to the project these days so i code a little when i can.
But i can tell i haven't give up yet...
