Which assemblers do you/did you use for coding?
I thought this might be interesting.
I'll start:
I started out with Hesmon, and later switched to Handics VICMON.
Never did anything major in this. Just learnt how stuff was working.
Later I bought a copy Oasis Machine Lightning (which was bought up by Ocean and turned into Laser Genious)
I used Machine Lightning for all demos I did in the 80's. Cost a shitload of money.
It's line oriented (like basic) which sucks a bit, but has very good macro facilities.
I had a quick stint with Macrofire V1.0 but thought it was cryptic.
I started using dasm as soon as I got an Amiga.
Kept on using dasm when I switched to a linux system.
I have recently started using Kick Assembler 2.12 in combination with dasm and make (under linux). |

I made a music screen for myself a couple of weeks ago, and so I wanted to code for real for the first time in decades.
After some research, I decided to use KickAssembler in Visual Studio Code, with an extension installed for syntax highlighting and starting in VICE with F6.
It works really well, except that VICE instances started with F6 are not closed unless I remember to do so myself. Before long I have a dozen VICE instances running all at once. |

Yeah, I'll remind you of that when you in 16 years repeat the same statement. :) |

I have quite the opposite problem: I tend to hit ALT-W after initial warp is over to quickly get to the part I want to test and then automatically press ALT-Q when I'm done. But often times my fingers get confused and I press ALT-Q as soon as VICE opens :-) |

Making a "start only one instance" feature has been on the TODO list for a while... not trivial unfortunately.
What you can do though: instead of starting up VICE directly, use a little script that triggers a reset and loads/starts the binary via the remote monitor feature. Then you wont have to close all those VICE instances anymore :) |

That middlepart could be the answer to both: "what do you use for c64 coding?" and "what are your favorite categories on pornhub?" ;-) |

Quoting StarfoxDeMOSic: I tried using 64TASS + notepad yesterday. No automation, just to test it out. I kind of like the barebones nature of such a setup, although I also use notepad++, sublime text normally together with kickass (which I only utilize 1% probably, lol).
yep, theres basically no automation or shortcuts for compilation or like other stuff, its just directly writing in the text editor (eg. notepad++), and to compile i have to open a command line and run the compilation script. It works for me! |
