What's the difference between ASM and asm? - BINUBALL - 03-27-2021 01:33 AM

I know I can use ASM command for compiling sysRPL or ML. There also exists asm in 257 MENU. What's the difference between ASM and asm command? Both command can complie program.
And, in 50g AUR page 6-11 It says asm command is in library 259. But I type 259 MENU, there are no command.

The AUR's only mention of 259 is "if you have a new version of MASD packaged as library 259", which you clearly don't (I believe nobody does). That should have been obvious from the text.

As for the difference between ASM and asm you have the tools to inspect them yourself, right there in the same 256. MENU as ASM. Then you would have seen that the code of ASM is simply
Code:
ROMPTR 101 0
a.k.a. a call to asm.

I use nosy for inspect ASM. Then I find that ASM call xasm. Thanks.
