oh, and one other thing, the CTRL-K cuts a line and adds it to the clipboard. But eventually it will give an error clipboard full, which is problematic if I just wanted to delete a (large) number of lines. Can we get a kill line key or alternatively some way to clear the clipboard? ❤️



Absolutely!

Just need to come up with a reasonable keyboard shortcuts, as they are running out.

It is not a great solution to start using Alt+key combinations (as Nano does), as those are already linked to graphical characters in PETSCII mode.

One possibility would be to link Ctrl+K to the cut command, and Ctrl+Shift+K to a new delete line command.

In a similar way Ctrl+C could be linked to the show cursor position command, and Ctrl+Shift+C could be used for a new command to continuously show the cursor position.

Have to think about it though.

EDIT: Always showing cursor position is now done and committed to master branch. I removed the Ctrl+C command altogether. Will continue with delete line command, probably another day.

New version!  .incbin already worked to include binary data, but now .include also works!  So you can now write modularized assembly programs across multiple files.

Great work @desertfish!!!

Is included code within the same scope as code in the main file? I mean, must all labels and identifiers be unique in both the main file and all included files?

Yes it’s a literal textual include.

theres no scoping of labels supported yet.
