New Goodies

We have several new products available this month.  There are descriptions inside this issue of the new Cross Reference program for the S-C Macro Assembler, and the new book "Apple ][ Circuit Description".  Also, the long-awaited RCA 1802 Cross Assembler is now ready, at $32.50.

Version 1.1 of the Macro Assembler is now ready to go!  The upgrade from the current Version 1.0 will only cost you $12.50.  That gets you //e, Videx, and STB 80-column support, 5 new directives and all the other new features described last month.


DISASM and the //e

Yesterday afternoon I received two phone call in less than 30 minutes, both reporting that RAK-Ware's disassembler, DISASM, does not work on the Apple //e.  The problem occurs when DISASM calls an odd entry into the monitor HOME routine.  At several places in the routines to enter address information Bob Kovacs used $FC5A for a sort of combination VTAB and Clear-to-End-of- Page.  Well, that won't work on a //e.  The following patches change all the calls to $FC5A into $FC58, or the standard HOME routine.  This will change the behavior of the program a little, making the screen clear between entries, rather than just tab down, but the program should now work.
