Re: [cc65] Problems with ORG directive and linker

I don't think so.

You may write a script that searches and replaces the ``.org``\s and 
creates a linker config.  Example replacements::

  .org $1000 -> .segment "seg_1000"
  .org $c000 -> .segment "seg_c000"

And a linker config::

  MEMORY {
      SEG_1000: start = $1000, size = $b000, fill = yes;
      SEG_c000: start = $c000, size = $4000, fill = yes;
  }
  SEGMENTS {
      seg_1000: load = SEG_1000;
      seg_c000: load = SEG_c000;
  }
