Announcement

Relaunch64 is going to be completely re-written, using Java and NetBeans. Relaunch64 should be published as open source. If you're interested in supporting the development under Java, please contact me! (Email)

Relaunch64 is a program (text-editor) for asm-coding on Windows (9X/ME/NT/2K/XP). This editor works together with common crossassembler like Kick Assembler, acme, dasm, c64asm or ca65. Usual texteditors can be used with these crossassemblers, too, but Relaunch64 has many features that beat all the other texteditors. Beside the typical texteditor-features, Relaunch64 offers special Synaxhighlighting, easy usage and handeling of Source-Code- Managament, assembling and running sourecodes just by one single keystroke etc.

You can easily structure your sourcecode by defining as many paragraphs as you want. With the special drop- down-list you can jump to any paragraph just by selecting it from the the list. This is one of the fastest ways of walking through the sourcecode.

The goto-label-function gives you the opportunity to jump to a label which is declared by a branch- or jump- command (bne, jmp, jsr, beq etc.).

You can define up to three c64-emulators and three crossassemblers. With that feature, it is possible to work with different crosstools without big effort in settings-changing. And just by pressing one single key, the sourcecode will be compiled to a user-defined output-directory and an emulator will automatically be startet, which runs the compiled source.

The editor has a very useful source-code-manager, which makes it possible to store code-snippets and easily paste collected code-snippets in the source. For a better overview, the collected sourcecodes can be devided into user-defined categories. You can edit your collected sources, rename them, move them to other categories or export them, so other Relaunch64-users can import your codes into their collections.

There are still more features, but we think you should check them out by yourself. For more details on the german version, check out our software-page at koolpeople.de.


Thanks a lot to Zeitgeist/Civitas for the great help with the english translation.
