Manx Axtec CG65 Cross Development Software for 65xx-based Systems
Version 3.2c, July 1987. Runs on MS-DOS

This is the CG65 compiler and PDF manual from Paul Santa Maria
downloaded from sys.apple2.

Set-up, libraries built, and rebundled for Windows XP, but should work
just fine in any MS-DOS environment or emulator since I have kept this
16 bit for my humble part.

Unzip and you should be good to go. Read the manual in the DOCS
directory and see the samples in the samples directory for more
details.

Have Fun!

Samples.txt

ReadMe for the Samples Directory for the AZCG65 MS-DOS hosted
cross- compiler for 6502 target systems

The samples directory contains some ProDOS programs targeted
for the Aztec C SHELL.SYSTEM environment. I built these for my
AppleShell distribution of the Aztec C SHELL programs for
ProDOS and DOS.3.3.

The libraries that come with this compiler are aimed at
creating console programs rather than Graphics programs which
makes CG65 well suited for producing programs for the ProDOS
SHELL.

Please note that I have added some utilities to the tools
directory. One of these is an old version of turbo make which I
use instead of the Aztec C make utility. I just prefer the
syntax. You can build each of these samples from the shortcuts
provided by typing "tmake" in their respective directories at
the Windows XP command prompt created by the shortcut.

The other utilities are called by the MAKEFILE for the samples.
The TXT files are Apple Text versions of the C programs. They
have no linefeeds... only carriage-returns. Best for viewing on
an Apple //e in 80 column mode, as are the sample programs
best-run as well.

The program EXMPL.C is the samples directory is slightly
modified from the EXMPL.C program in the WORK directory. You
will use the one in the WORK directory if you do the tutorial
in the manual. Aside from the samples directory and the tools
directory, I have added a DOCS directory where the electronic
manual is stored. Otherwise, this is all set-up according to
the manual.

You can read the Manual in the DOCS directory for more
information about CG65 and read the related source code for
more information about what I have added.

I should note that I used the Aztec C make utility to build the
4 libraries supplied with CG65 and I used the nmake from
Microsoft's last 16 bit compiler to build the programs in the
tools directory.

And that is all.

Have Fun!

ReadMe for the CG65 Tools Directory

tmake.exe - old version of turbo make which I use instead of the Aztec


C make utility. I just prefer the syntax.

You can build each of the samples from the shortcuts provided by typing


"tmake" in their respective directories at the Windows XP command
prompt created by the shortcut.

The other utilities listed below are called by the MAKEFILE for the
samples.I used the nmake from Microsoft's last 16 bit compiler to build
these programs. Review the source code for more information.

appibtxt.exe - converts apple to IBM text files or vice versa. Revised
somewhat 2008 to display usage and handle unix text and added some
minor fix-ups like autodetecting input files etc.

makeprg.exe - strips the 4 byte bloadable header from a manx C65
executable and outputs a same named file with an extension. Default
extension is PRG
