- MDM840
-
- Translation of MDM740.ASM for CPM86 and MPM86.
-
- This translation follows the same principle of using overlays
- to adapt MDM8xx to different hardware environments as was so
- successfully done with MDM7xx.
-
- The procedure to adapt MDM8xx to specific hardware has changed
- somewhat due to the facts that DDT86 cannot be used to overlay
- H86 (HEX) files and no SAVE command beeing available in CPM86.
-
- The Procedure is now as follows:
-
- Required Files: MDM8xx.H86 (xx is Version Number)
- The Main Program in Hex Form.
-
- M8GP.A86 (The General Non-Specific
- Overlay.
- or
- One of the available Overlays
- for your hardware.)
-
-
-
- After Editing your Overlay Source File to conform to your
- Hardware environment, proceed as follows:
-
-
- ASM86 M8GP ( Assemble the Overlay File )
- PIP MDM.H86=MDM840.H86,M8GP.H86 ( Append Overlay to Main Program )
- GENCMD MDM 8080 CODE[MFF0] ( Run GENCMD to produce MDM.CMD )
-
- Now you can run MDM.CMD
-
-
-
- The Translation was MAINLY done be hand as XLT86
- ( DRs 8080 -> 8086 translator) is virtualy useless with large files.
- Various routines had to be changed to work properly with CPM86 and
- MPM86
