Even though the bank number was read from the linkerscript and the linker verified that each section could be mapped in the final rom, the bank number was never actually set by the linkerscript parser. Signed-off-by: AntonioND <antonio_nd@outlook.com>
RGBDS
RGBDS (Rednex Game Boy Development System) is a free assembler/linker package for the Game Boy and Game Boy Color. It consists of:
- rgbasm (assembler)
- rgblink (linker)
- rgbfix (checksum/header fixer)
- rgbgfx (PNG‐to‐Game Boy graphics converter)
This is a fork of the original RGBDS which aims to make the programs more like other UNIX tools.
Installing RGBDS (UNIX)
RGBDS requires yacc, flex, libpng and pkg-config to be installed.
On Mac OS X, install them with Homebrew. On other Unixes, use the built-in package manager. For example, on Debian or Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install byacc flex pkg-config libpng-dev
You can test if libpng and pkg-config are installed by running
pkg-config --cflags libpng: if the output is a path, then you're good, and if
it outputs an error then you need to install them via a package manager.
To build the programs on a UNIX or UNIX-like system, just run in your terminal:
make
Then to install the compiled programs and manual pages, run (with appropriate privileges):
make install
After installation, you can read the manuals with the man(1) command. E.g.,
man 1 rgbasm
Note: the variables described below can affect installation behavior when given on the make command line. For example, to install rgbds in your home directory instead of systemwide, run the following:
mkdir -p $HOME/{bin,man/man1,man/man7}
make install PREFIX=$HOME
PREFIX: Location where RGBDS will be installed. Defaults to /usr/local.
BINPREFIX: Location where the RGBDS programs will be installed. Defaults
to ${PREFIX}/bin.
MANPREFIX: Location where the RGBDS man pages will be installed. Defaults
to ${PREFIX}/man.
Q: Whether to quiet the build or not. To make the build more verbose, clear
this variable. Defaults to @.
STRIP: Whether to strip the installed binaries of debug symbols or not.
Defaults to -s.
BINMODE: Permissions of the installed binaries. Defaults to 555.
MANMODE: Permissions of the installed manpages. Defaults to 444.
