This script is being used with actual NES, Famicom and clone hardware, and with the TuxNES and fceu emulators running on Linux. No single linker script can provide generic NES support, however. Most NES cartridges include a memory mapper chip, or MMC, to increase the available address space beyond 64k. There are many dozens of MMC designs in use, each with a different memory map requiring a customized linker script. What's really needed for cc65 to support NES programming is a flexible linker, like the excellent one it already has. > Just out of curiosity: Is there any reason for writing the segments to > separate files and combining them via "cat" instead of let the linker write > them to one file? > As groepaz suggested, it's just for convenience in assembling ROM images.
