Development tools
A2Command has been developed with the following tools:
- cc65 link -- C and Assembler compilers with linker, for building 6502-based binaries.
- GNU Make link -- Makefile processor which builds the sources, using CC65.
- Visual Studio 2010
link -- I suggest downloading the ISO with all of the express editions; but specifically, you need the C++ edition.
- WinVICE link -- The best Commodore emulators available.
- CodePlex link -- Project management and source control.
HELP!
I'm looking for folks who want to adopt portions of the code, and help to make it better. If you are familiar with C and/or Assembly, or just want to get familiar with them (I had practically zero Assembly knowledge when I started this project), then contact
me; and, we'll see if I can find something for you to do. :-)
