address for changing pointers for rts?

Hey guys

I need a reminder of the addresses used for when I need to change an address for a "rts" so it returns to a new location rather than the old

eg

jsr blah
rts
blah rts

but instead of returning to the jsr'd address to go to a new address

Thanks!!

I cant remember the mem locations to change it :(

Not quite, you must store "address-1" to stack if you want to return to the opcode after the JSR.

JMP new_adress

is shorter and faster. And as we are at it:

JSR somewhere
RTS

can be replaced with

JMP somewhere

which is also shorter and faster.

If Steve Wozniak used it in its Sweet 16 asm style interpreter
for the Apple II, why should we not use it?

I prefer

        jmp subroutine
back:

subroutine:
        jmp back


for subroutines that are only called from one place, e.g. typically speedcode, since it saves 6 cycles. No coding style is horrible if it saves cycles :)

Cruzer:
But on the other hand you very seldom need the concept of a "subroutine" at all if it's only called from one place. (The only case I could think of is when trying to fit in some code within a page or something.)

I'm smartass number 1.
