Changelog¶
6.2 (2018-01-01)¶
- Added the
--reg
option to bin2sna.py (for setting the value of a register) - Added the
--state
option to bin2sna.py (for setting the value of a hardware state attribute) - sna2img.py can now read a binary (raw memory) file when the
--binary
option is used, and with a specific origin address when the--org
option is used - Added the
Includes
parameter to the [MemoryMap:*] section (for specifying addresses of entries to include on the memory map page in addition to those specified by theEntryTypes
parameter) - The SkoolKit command options now accept a hexadecimal integer prefixed by ‘0x’ wherever an address, byte, length, step, offset or range limit value is expected
- Added the
hex
parameter to the #N macro (for rendering a value in hexadecimal format unless the--decimal
option is used with skool2asm.py or skool2html.py) - Added the
--show-config
option to skool2asm.py, skool2html.py and sna2skool.py (for showing configuration parameter values) - Added support for substituting labels in instruction operands and
DEFB/DEFM/DEFW statements that contain multiple addresses (e.g.
LD BC,30000+40000%256
), or where the address is the second or later term in an expression (e.g.DEFW 1+30000
) - The @keep directive can now specify the values to keep, and is applied to instructions that have been replaced by an @isub, @ssub or @rsub directive
- The @nolabel directive is now processed in HTML mode
6.1 (2017-09-03)¶
- Added support for converting the base of every numerical term in an
instruction operand or DEFB/DEFM/DEFS/DEFW statement that contains two or
more (e.g.
LD A,32768/256
toLD A,$8000/$100
) - Added support for assembling instructions and DEFB/DEFM/DEFS/DEFW statements
whose operands contain arithmetic expressions (e.g.
DEFM "H","i"+$80
) - Added support to skool2asm.py, skool2html.py and sna2skool.py for reading configuration from a file named skoolkit.ini, if present
- Added the
--ini
option to skool2asm.py, skool2html.py and sna2skool.py (for setting the value of a configuration parameter) - sna2img.py can now read skool files, in either the default mode, or
@bfix
mode by using the--bfix
option - Added the
--move
option to sna2img.py (for copying the contents of a block of RAM to another location) - Improved how skool2asm.py formats a comment that covers two or more instructions: now the comment is aligned to the widest instruction, and even blank lines are prefixed by a semicolon
- Improved how the #R macro renders the address of an unavailable instruction (an instruction outside the range of the current disassembly, or in another disassembly) in ASM mode
- Removed the indent from EQU directives in ASM output (for compatibility with SjASMPlus)
- Fixed the bug that prevents the expansion of a macro whose numeric parameters contain a ‘<’, ‘>’ or ‘&’ character
- Fixed how labels are substituted for addresses in DEFB/DEFM/DEFW statements
- Fixed skool2asm.py so that it processes
@ssub
directives when--fixes 3
is specified - Fixed the styling of entry descriptions for ‘t’ blocks on a memory map page
6.0 (2017-05-06)¶
- Dropped support for Python 2.7 and 3.3
- Added the
--expand
option to sna2img.py (for expanding a #FONT, #SCR, #UDG or #UDGARRAY macro) - Added the
--basic
option to tapinfo.py (for listing the BASIC program in a tape block) - Added the
--find-tile
option to snapinfo.py (for searching for the graphic data of a tile currently on screen) - Added the
--word
option to snapinfo.py (for showing the words at a range of addresses) - Added support to the
--find
option of snapinfo.py for specifying a range of distances between byte values (e.g.--find 1,2,3-1-10
) - The
--peek
option of snapinfo.py now shows UDGs and BASIC tokens - Added support for replacement fields (such as
{base}
and{case}
) in theexpr
parameter of the #IF macro and thekey
parameter of the #MAP macro - Added support for parsing a box page entry section as a
sequence of multi-line list items prefixed by ‘-‘ (with
SectionType=BulletPoints
) - The following ref file components may now contain skool macros: the
anchor
andtitle
of a box page entry section name; every parameter in the [Game], [MemoryMap:*], [Page:*], [PageHeaders], [Paths] and [Titles] sections - The @replace directive now acts on ref file section names as well as their contents
- The #EVAL macro now renders hexadecimal values in lower case when the
--lower
option of skool2asm.py or skool2html.py is used - Added the #VERSION macro (which expands to the version of SkoolKit)
- Fixed how an image is cropped when the crop rectangle is very narrow
- Fixed how a masked image with flashing cells is built
- Fixed how sna2skool.py handles a snapshot that contains a dangling IX/IY prefix (DD/FD) when generating a control file
- Fixed the bug that prevents the expansion of skool macros in a page’s link text on the disassembly home page
