To compile for example the music player, write:
pasmo --tapbas player.asm player.tap
If you want to convert it to wav so that you can record it to a tape, you can try:
appmake +zx --dumb --audio -b player.tap
The resulting player.wav should contain the application binary.
If you have a working C program in hello.c and want to include it in your
assembly code, you could do the following.
zcc +zx -lndos -lm -zorg=40960 -o hello.tmp hello.c
python z88dkpatcher.py hello.tmp hello.bin
Then create a hello.asm file with following contents:
org $8000
main
call hello
ret
org 40960
hello incbin hello.bin
end main
Compile hello.asm with pasmo --tapbas hello.asm hello.tap and you have a
nice working file. You probably want to use some other free memory address
instead of 40960 ($a000) and call the C routine from your ASM code, but this
should get you started.
