A89: Re: program address




> at what address are asm programs executed from in the RAM?

The one they are residing at at the moment. On the 89/92 the programs aren't
moved to a fixed address - all calls to ROM, RAM and library functions are in a
table in the program's file, and when the program is executed the kernel finds
the addresses of those functions and puts them where they are used in the file
so that the callc will work properly.
