Raw Blame History 

===== Cowgol 2.0 for CP/M =====



This disk contains the Cowgol 2.0 compiler and related tools.

These files were provided by Ladislau Szilagyi and were sourced

from his GitHub repository at https://github.com/Laci1953/Cowgol_on_CP_M.



The COWFE program included here is the RomWBW-specific version that

is tailored to RomWBW memory management.



Ladislau's distribution is derived from Cowgol 2.0 by David Given at

https://github.com/davidgiven/cowgol.



The user manual is available in the RomWBW distribution in the

Doc/Language directory.  The file is "Cowgol Language.pdf"



The Hi-Tech C compiler components were sourced from the updated

version by Tony Nicholson at https://github.com/agn453/HI-TECH-Z80-C.

However, the CPP.COM component was sourced from Ladislau Szilagyi's

enhanced Hi-Tech C at https://github.com/Laci1953/HiTech-C-compiler-enhanced.



Note that only the minimum required Hi-Tech C compiler components

are provided.  Additional components from Hi-Tech C may be required

depending on your needs.



There are two example Cowgol applications included:



- HEXDUMP is a simple hex dump utility and is purely a Cowgol

  application (no assembler or C components).  The command

  line to build the application is:



    COWGOL -M HEXDUMP.COW



- DYNMSORT demonstrates a sort algorithm and is composed of

  Cowgol, C, and assembler components.  The command line to

  build the application is:



    COWGOL -LC DYNMSORT.COW MERGES.C RAND.AS



There are also SUBMIT files provided to build the example

applications which can be used as follows:



    SUBMIT HEXDUMP

    SUBMIT DYNMSORT

The Adventure game program source has been added.  The command to

build the source is:



    COWGOL -O MISC.COO STRING.COO RANFILE.COO ADVENT.COW ADVTRAV.COW ADVMAIN.COW



or you can use the SUBMIT file:



    SUBMIT ADVENT



WARNING: You will need to build this application under CP/M 3 because

COWGOL needs more main memory than is available under CP/M 2.2.

The Cowgol distribution has been updated based on the latest

release by Ladislau Szilagyi as of 2/25/2025.
