ASLINK is the companion linker for the ASxxxx assemblers.
The linker supports versions 3, 4, 5 and 6 of the ASxxxx assem-
blers. Object files from version 3, 4, 5, and 6 may be freely
mixed while linking. Note that version 3 object files contain
only a subset of the options available in versions 4, 5, and 6.
Only version 6 supports complex relocations.
The program ASLINK is a general relocating linker performing
the following functions:
1. Bind multiple object modules into a single memory image
2. Resolve inter-module symbol references
3. Combine code belonging to the same area from multiple
object files into a single contiguous memory region
4. Search and import object module libraries for undefined
global variables
5. Perform byte and word program counter relative
(pc or pcr) addressing calculations
6. Define absolute symbol values at link time
7. Define absolute area base address values at link time
8. Produce Intel Hex, Motorola S, or Tandy CoCo Disk Basic
output files
9. Produce a map of the linked memory image
10. Produce an updated listing file with the relocated ad-
dresses and data
