Greetings everyone.
I'm making a z80 based system from scratch.
I've got hardware running, but struggling for software.
Im struggling to find an assembler / compiler suit for z80 assembly that will let me create everything from scratch, basically my own operating system.
I've just looked at z88DK, and unless i'm missing something, the documentation is mostly unhelpful. It boasts about having library functions for a large list of hardware yet don't give you a list of functions an what parameters they take. It says to look in the library file for the functions yet the library files don't have any explanation and some of them are not ascii (proberbly pre compiled).
It would be nice to have some things in a library for general use, such as math functions, or more complecated stuff (disk storage and filesystems).
I've got 8088 and Z80 assembler and disassembler suit installed and editing with notepad++.
Any help, advice, tips, etc appreciated.
TIA

There's a fairly detailed breakdown of adding a new target here: Library in Depth, though I'll admit I've never brought up a whole new target myself.
