If I remembered correctly, debug was only capable of writing 64kB (mono-segment) data? Though one can always create an in-RAM program inside debug to output larger files.
- ksaj 3y agoYea, I think you could only write a COM file, since they are single segment "memory images". And 64kB was indeed the limit for a memory segment in those days. Depending on what you were doing, even a ^C character in a script would throw it off, too.
