MC-6811.zip

From: Duncan, Ray, M.D. MC-6811.ZIP attached. I found this on the archive of the old BBS. ROM6811 is the kernel. ASM6811 is the (optional) cross-compilable assembler for interactive use on the target. MC.COM and MC.SYM are the cross-compiler. Unpack everything in the ZIP into a single directory and then run it like: C>MC ROM6811 [enter] This is REALLY old. If they wanted to change the cross-compiler itself and recompile it, that would be more of a challenge as they would need the generic MS-DOS version of PC/FORTH to rebuild it. I did verify that it runs in a WinXP DOS command window and appears to generate a correct image (compared to my reference image from many years ago). I didn't try it on Win7 but I assume it would work. [Editorial Note: To run a DOS COM program (16-bit 8086 emulation "real mode") on 64-bit win7 it's reportedly necessary to use a simulator such as DOSBox or to run a virtual instance of Windows XP.] |
