The problem with such an emulation is, that some features may not be emulated,
especially when it comes to things that are caused by the larger feature set
of the cc65 tool chain, like relocatable object code, which makes the .ORG
command work different. This means that such an emulation will never be
perfect and people may be disappointed. And it will of course mean even more
features which makes ca65 difficult to understand for newbies.
But ok, I will have a look into this issue. Maybe I can find the narrow path
between simplicity and complexity...
BTW: Is there some sort of comparison sheet for the different assemblers?
Regards
Uz
