How to assemble z80 software with WinCPC

Use for example the asm code on the author's contact page [1] Open it in the z80 assembler and compile it. The software give you the entry point adress and the size.

  • execute it :
CALL &8000
  • save it on a dsk ( should be insert of course ):
SAVE "flynn.bin",b,&8000,&1C
  • to execute the saved binary :
MEMORY &7FFF
LOAD "flynn.bin",&8000
CALL &8000
