Source code conversion between assemblers help

[Dropcheck]

I have an unnamed assembler source code that I am trying to convert to MADS. The problem is I am new to MADS. What experience I've had with assembly language on the Atari 8bit was with the MAC/65.

There's a splash screen that displays until the program completely loads, then the main program starts. I've isolated the transition to this code snippet.

*= $02E2
.word ADVERT
;
*= $02E0
.word MAIN

 

How would I do this in MADS?

[JamesD]

I think the * represents the current address, so that is the equivalent of an ORG statement.
I don't use MADS but it may expect .org or .ORG
The .word statements may be labels or variables.
So it could be like this:
.org $02E2
.word ADVERT
;
.org $02E0
.word MAIN

or like this. I've had people ask me why I use the colons, so those can probably be omitted. Just a habit I started with another assembler that most don't seem to mind.

.org $02E2
ADVERT:
;
.org $02E0
MAIN:

ini ADVERT

run MAIN

@Pirx: Nice

 

Check out the section in the WUDSN IDE FAQ. Describes it for ATASM which is MAC/65 compatible.

Esp. notable is the difference in using single/double quotes. Maybe that's in Pirx' magic script, too - I don't speak SEDish :-)
