Psy-Q Development System
Running with Brief
Most programmers prefer to develop programs completely within a single, enabling
environment. Future versions of Psy-Q will provide a self-contained superstructure
with a built-in editor, tailored to the requirements of the assembly and debug sub-
systems. For the time being however, it is recommended that programmers seeking
such facilities should use Borland's Brief text editor, which is already supported by
Psy-Q.
Installation in Brief
In order to use Brief with Psy-Q, you will need to make a few changes to your
AUTOEXEC.BAT file after you have installed Brief:
Set the BCxxx environment variables. These variables take the file extension of a
source file to tell Brief how to Assemble or Compile the file. For example:
set bc68k="asm68k /i /w /d /zd %%s,t0:,%%s,,"
set bcs="asmsh /i /w /d /zd %%s,t0:,%%s,,"
set bcc="ccsh -v -g -Xo$80010000 %%s.c -o%%s.cpe,%%s.sym" **
These will Assemble .68k source file with ASM68k, .S source files with the
ASM68k assembler (see chapter 2), and Compile .C source files with CCSH (see
The Build Utility chapter).
Set the BFLAGS environment variable, with -mPSYQ appended, to force the Psy-Q
macro file to be loaded on start-up. For example:
set bflags=-ai60Mk2u300p -mrestore -Dega -D101key -mPSQ
The variable may look different depending on how Brief was set up.
Finally, copy the file PSYQ.CM, containing macros, into the \BRIEF\MACROS
directory, or create it from source file PSYQ.CB;
