Kris,

If you can write an assembler, you can write the code that handles the .lst format output.  I'm sure that when Guenther wrote SXSim, he did exactly what I suggested in my previous post.  He probably output a few .lst files, loaded them into a text editor, counted the spaces between columns and went to town.  It's a static format with fixed column widths and simple output rules.

I maintain the IDE and SASM, but I didn't create either of them.  As a result, all the various file formats were created by someone else and there's no spec sheet or design notes to guide me.  When I need to make changes to either program and the way it affects output files, I have to reverse engineer things just like everyone else.

Since I don't have any ready answers (sorry) for the details of the .lst file, I'm not sure who else would on this forum.  Guenther might, but I imagine that he would have to do what I would have to do, which is to either plow through a bunch of his source code, or manually figure out the format by loading a .lst into a text editor.

I'm sure you have the skill to figure out the format, and it's not hard to do.  You must have some simple code that you test your assembler with.  Well, it should assemble in the IDE as well.  Assemble it, create a .lst file, and go to town.  It's a day's worth of work to get it going.

Thanks,
PeterM
