Command Line

zcc  +cpm -subtype=bondwell -create-app program.c

A .dsk disc image (and a .COM file) will be created as a result.

Emulator hints

MAME was recently updated and an issue related to the floppy disk access slowness has been solved.

The command line options to boot CP/M and use the created disk image will be something like:

mame64 bw12 -flop1 bondwl12.td0 -flop2 a.dsk

-or- mame64 bw14 -flop1 bondw14.td0 -flop2 a.dsk

After the CP/M boot, just enter 'b:a.com' to run the program.
