Simple utility to print out useful information about how much space your AppleSoft program is using. Gets loaded in $6000, which may or may not be important space for your AppleSoft program, so be sure to save it before running BASICINF!

To build via the Makefile, you'll need cc65 installed, and also deater's dos33fsprogs. Note that deater's repo contains many, many more things than you need for building this project - only the bits in utils/dos33fs-utils and utils/asoft_basic-utils are needed. You can go into those dirs and build them individually (and then place them somewhere on your path, so my Makefile will find them!).

What are all these other files that aren't even used by the Makefile?, you may well ask. Good question!

I developed this utility (and most Apple II software I've made) using http://8bitworkshop.com/, which by default uses a fake-but-free Apple II ROM from the Apple II Go emulator project, and also is hardcoded to assume your program code starts at $803.

For this reason, I (a) include a correct apple2 ROM in my project, so that I have access to AppleSoft BASIC, and (b) have additional starter code in basicinf-startup.s, basicinf-basic.s, and load-and-run-basic.s, along with basicinf.cfg, the linker script for use in 8bws (as opposed to build.cfg, the linker script used in the Makefile).

This project includes code from other projects I've done:

• https://github.com/micahcowan/math-ca65 (from which I just copied-and-pasted a couple routines to print unsigned words as decimal numbers), and
• https://github.com/micahcowan/8bit-a2-run-basic-prog, which allows projects on 8bitworkshop to bootstrap themselves into a BASIC program, without a DOS.
