I'm cross referencing and archiving some Organiser II 'stuff' for Martin Guthrie (from facebook).

Included is the contents of the Assembler & Debugger v1.2 03-98 Floppy Disk. I'm out of my depth with this so if anyone wants to take a look and comment I'd be able to add those comments to the feedback to Martin.

To wet your appetite this is the contents page of the read_me_doc

Code: Select all

This looks very much like some files that I used to test my assembler, so I must have found it somewhere. It may be a different version and so still useful to archive. I think I got the files from this page;

https://www.jaapsch.net/psion/mctutor1.htm

There seems to be multiple versions of XA in that archive so a sort out is probably worthwhile. \i think there was a missing .INC file as well, that I had to make up myself.
