I have been having troubles trying to get an ion program to compile with spasm on my linux machine. I used the standard header from joewing.net and used the ion.inc file from his website as well. Unfortunately spasm keeps on telling me that there are errors in the ion.inc file.
My guess is that it doesn't like the #ifdef TI83P stuff, but I am really at a loss as to what is the issue. Has anybody else been able to successfully assemble ion programs under the spasm environment? |

just get rid of the IFDEF's and only use the 83 plus definitions, not the 83 definitions.
its much more helpful if you post the actual errors you're getting though. |

Sweet, it works now. Although it gives me a warning for every single bcall(xxxx) instruction, but it seems to execute the program correctly, it was just a simple hello world program.
The warning that it gives me is...
20: warning: Suggest remove extra parentheses around argument

Alrightly, I tried assembling a slightly more complicated program and I got the following errors...
74: error: '_RunIndicOff' isn't a macro or label
75: error: '_DisableApd' isn't a macro or label
1046: error: '_RunIndicOn' isn't a macro or label
1047: error: '_EnableApd' isn't a macro or label
Are these bcalls unnecessary with ion. Are they automatically turned off when you are running the shell, so it doesn't let you use them in a program???
Also, it seems to not be liking my tank program.
[attachment=2539:attachment]
Are there some idiosyncrasies with ion that might be causing this. If you look at the screenshot you will notice that the values for the starting frequencies are all 0 even though the bomber should be at 5, and your starting exp is 0 when it should be higher as well. All I did was change the header for the program and remove those 4 bcalls. I'm guessing that it has something to do with storage in memory.

I got it working.

| I seem to remember that some memory addresses are defined incorrectly in ion.inc. I never use that include file (I can never remember all the nonstandard names anyway.) |

| If you don't use that include file how do you compile a program for ion? |

You can use any include file you want. I would think it's safe to say FloppusMaximus and I have our own include files built up from other include files and our own research.
There's nothing in there you absolutely must need for Ion. All you really need is the Ion header. |

The only things you might need the Ion include file for are the Ion library functions. For everything else, you can use ti83plus.inc or squish.inc. (Of course, ion.inc does provide a lot of aliases for system routines and memory areas, so you might have to hunt around a bit if you're used to using the unofficial names. But then, I think it makes things less confusing to use the official names whenever you can.)
Here are the definitions for the Ion library functions, should you want to use them:
Code:
lVectors .equ cmdShadow+80
ionVersion .equ lVectors
ionRandom .equ lVectors+3
ionPutSprite .equ lVectors+6
ionLargeSprite .equ lVectors+9
ionGetPixel .equ lVectors+12
ionFastCopy .equ lVectors+15
ionDetect .equ lVectors+18
ionDecompress .equ lVectors+21
