Donald Straney’s Planfile

10.5.06 - Planfile Created.

11.26.06 - Waiting for Spencer to finish up the next version of SPASM so I can get out the 1.0 release…

3.1.07 - Screw that. I’m tired of waiting. I’ve started modding the latest SPASM release to do all the stuff I need it to and I’ve been working more on asmide. It’s all been going really quickly, so it shouldn’t be too long (maybe another week?) until I can release a new version that’s ready for testing. I mostly just have to clean up a couple small things in the IDE, figure out a way to get SPASM to ignore label errors, and go through the long, boring task of creating an instruction stats file for the code counter. The code looks like it’s long overdue for a rewrite, but that’ll have to wait until after 1.0 (completely redoing it now would take too long and bring in too many new bugs, and the full version would never actually get released).

5.4.07 - Well 1.0 has been out for a few days now, I’ve finished fixing all the bugs that suddenly appeared right after release, and all that’s left to do is work out some legal issues with TASM80.TAB and the GPL (probably by dumping some data from a GPL’ed Z80 assembler into a file and modifying SPASM to work with it). At the moment version 2 can do all the stuff a basic text editor can, without an undo…or a working find…or replace…but it’s getting there!

5.19.07 - Last night I wrote 90% of the undo/redo code for Z80 assembly IDE 2 while I was half asleep - really, my eyes were closing every few seconds and I had to struggle to keep them open so I could see what I was typing.  That never worked with assembly…
