Assemble code

Hello guys, I have code in a TXT file. Into which WIN 7 assembler can I best copy and paste this code to see if it works?

Post a snippet of the text-file so that we can determine which assembler that is compatible with the source. There are several flavors of 6502-assembly...

I doubt there are any win7 specific assemblers. It's more of a 32-bit vs 64-bit thingy. Most ones compiled for win XP will work.

Here's a snippet:

LDA #8
STA FINET
JMP TOP
DEC TEMPOBYT
BPL TOP
LDA TEMPO
STA TEMPOBYT
LDA TSIDINDEX,X
STA SIDVNUM
TAY
LDA FINET
BEQ J3
LDA TEMPOBYT
CMP TEMPO
BNE J3
LDA TBARORDER,X
STA Z0
LDA TBARORDER+3,X
STA Z0+1

If you need more, I'm gonna have to send it to your personally.

Let me know!

That's plain code, compatible with pretty much every assembler out there. They differ in how they handle labels, data bytes, org directives, etc - post a snippet with that.

Mager, please explain that a little bit more. What part do you need to see?

We need to see the lables, the words that describe locations in the program, like TEMPO.
And then something like:
!TEMPO {code}
TEMPO: {code}
TEMPO {code}

Where {code} is the assembly code.

Or stuff that reads '.byte $00, $00' or other lists of bytes.

Something like this:

TEMPO DB 2
FINET DB 0
XXXX DB 2
TEMPY DB 0
PLAYFLAG DB $C0
OSCH DB 0,0,0
OSCL DB 0,0,0
BENDL DB 0,0,0
BENDH DB 0,0,0

and

* ;DB $85,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0
* ;DM DB $81,$2C,$81,$20,$15,$80,1,$11,0,1,$11,$55,2
* ;DB $11,$00,2,$85
* ;BASSDM DB $81,$2C,$81,$10,$41,$80,3,$40,0,1,$40,$55,3
* ;DB $40,$20,0,$40,0,0,$85

?

Looks like DASM.

No, that's not DASM, it uses dc.b etc. With the all uppercase source, db/dw for data, and * for comments it looks like something older, and possibly C64-native.

For more clues post the bit where there are label assignments (using = or equ?) and where the start of the code is defined (using * = or org?).

Interesting.
I was indeed guessing about DASM, no hands on experience.
