ATASM(1)

NAME
atasm - assembler targeted for the 6502 CPU with Atari-specific features

SYNOPSIS
atasm [options] filename

DESCRIPTION
atasm assembles 6502 code to an Atari DOS executable, an Atari XFD disk image, or a raw binary file.

The syntax used is compatible with the Atari 8-bit assembler MAC/65, with a few extensions (notably 6502 illegal opcode support)

OPTIONS

-ofilename
    saves the object file to filename instead of sourcefile [.65o]

-Dsymbol=value
    Defines symbol to value before assembly begins. This is equivalent to inserting a line like symbol=value before the first line of the source file.

-Idirectory
    specifies a search directory for .INCLUDE directives

-v  prints assembly trace.

-s  prints symbol table when assembly is completed.

-u  enables undocumented opcodes. This is equivalent to using the .OPTILL in the source file. Notice that this command-line paramter is overriden by any directives in the source files.

-mfilename
    defines the template emulator state file.

-xfilename
    saves object file to .XFD image filename

-r  saves object code as a raw binary image

-fvalue
    set the raw binary fill byte to value
