Allow MOD directive to accept only the standard base header parameters
There are cases where only the standard OS9 module header fields are to be
provided. This could be, for instance, in the case of a nonstandard user
type module. So allow the execution offset and data size fields to be
omitted entirely and handle the module length correctly as well.

As of LWASM 4.11, those compatibility instructions can be enabled using the <CODE CLASS="PARAMETER" >--6800compat</CODE > option or the <CODE CLASS="PARAMETER" >6800compat</CODE > pragma. It also supports all known HD6309 instructions. While there is general agreement on the pneumonics for most of the 6309 instructions, there is some variance with the block transfer instructions. TFM for all four variations seems to have gained the most traction and, thus, this is the form that is recommended for LWASM. However, it also supports COPY, COPY-, IMP, EXP, TFRP, TFRM, TFRS, and TFRR. It further adds COPY+ as a synomym for COPY, IMPLODE for IMP, and EXPAND for EXP. </P ><P >By default, LWASM accepts 6309 instructions. However, using the <CODE CLASS="PARAMETER" >--6809</CODE > parameter, you can cause it to throw errors on 6309 instructions instead.</P ><P >The standard addressing mode specifiers are supported. These are the hash sign ("#") for immediate mode, the less than sign ("<") for forced eight bit modes, and the greater than sign (">") for forced sixteen bit modes.</P ><P >Additionally, LWASM supports using the asterisk ("*") to indicate base page addressing. This should not be used in hand-written source code, however, because it is non-standard and may or may not be present in future versions of LWASM.</P ></DIV ><DIV CLASS="NAVFOOTER" ><HR ALIGN="LEFT" WIDTH="100%"><TABLE SUMMARY="Footer navigation table" WIDTH="100%" BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0" ><TR ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="c62.html" ACCESSKEY="P" >Prev</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="index.html" ACCESSKEY="H" >Home</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="x238.html" ACCESSKEY="N" >Next</A ></TD ></TR ><TR ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top" >LWASM</TD ><TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="c62.html" ACCESSKEY="U" >Up</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top" >Source Format</TD ></TR ></TABLE ></DIV ></BODY ></HTML >
