So, I'm running the 'Coin' program from the book MPW and Assembly Language Programming for the Macintosh (1987)
It's giving a bad F-line instruction on line 100
Macsbug gives the following:
Unimplemented instruction at 00000100
No procedure name
000100 DC.W $FFFF
I'm pretty sure this is due to it being a newer System and possibly RAM/Disk?
My system is:
Macintosh Classic with 4MB memory
Scsi2sd with 4x 2gb volumes
System 7.0.1 with tune-up, extensions off
MPW version 3.2.2 configured according to the instructions in the book.
This is the program I'm trying to run. I have verified that it is correct line for line.
It builds and links properly, and I am running it according to the instructions.
Can anyone who knows assembly on these machines point to why this code would crash my machine?
I don't have any other known issues with the hardware/software.
Here is a screenshot of the listing. This is from the following pdf on page 24. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
