cc65/Atari cartridge support for text adventure?

[Harry Potter]

Hi!  I have cc65, the Altirra emulator and a text adventure code to convert to a cartridge image.  Now, cc65 comes with cartridge support.  Do I need to do anything other than copy the .cfg file?  Any format issues?  What about the crt0.s file?

I found the information I needed.    I looked in the cc65 docs., and they directed me to the Mapping the Atari book.  I looked there for the cart flag address and found the flag meanings.  I'm working on the port now.

It turns out that I need your help after all.  It currently crashes upon start-up.   What do I need to do to the crt0's file to get it to work?  BTW, the cartridge flag is set to $04, not $01.

I think it's due to an incompatibility with AtaSimpleIO.    I'm going to test that theory now.

[Harry Potter]

It is!  I really want the AtaSimpleIO library, as it's more efficient than the standard I/O library.

I found the bug: AtaSimpleIO needs to write a vector to the printc() function at start-up.  I got that to work, but I needed to put the function's object code in the DATA segment and copy the segment to RAM.  Then, I had to debug the GetInput() function: I added the Atari8 version of the function from another program and fixed some display glitches.  Then, I found some bugs with the Look verb and related source code.  It works now.
