Command Line

zcc  +cpm -subtype=bw2 -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 bw2 -flop1 bondwl02.td0

After the CP/M boot, change the virtual floppy disk image (choose A.DSK).

Alternatively, the Dunfield's tools can be used (TD2IMD, TD02IMD and IMDU) to convert the CP/M system disk image into a RAW unencoded file, suitable to be altered with cpmtools. The file A.COM is built together with the packaged A.DSK
